9 And he proceeded to burn the house+ of Jehovah and the king’s house+ and all the houses of Jerusalem;+ and the house of every great man* he burned with fire.+

25 due to the fact that they have left me+ and gone making sacrificial smoke to other gods,+ in order to offend+ me with all the doings of their hands+ and that my rage+ may pour forth upon this place and not be extinguished.’”+

16 But they were continually making jest+ at the messengers of the [true] God and despising his words+ and mocking+ at his prophets, until the rage+ of Jehovah came up against his people, until there was no healing.+

20 Therefore this is what the Sovereign Lord Jehovah has said, ‘Look! My anger and my rage are being poured forth upon this place,+ upon mankind* and upon domestic animal, and upon the tree of the field+ and upon the fruitage of the ground; and it must burn, and it will not be extinguished.’+

8 And the house of the king and the houses of the people the Chal·deʹans burned with fire,+ and the walls of Jerusalem they pulled down.+

4 Finally it came about in the ninth year of his being king,+ in the tenth month, on the tenth day of the month, that Neb·u·chad·rezʹzar the king of Babylon came, he and all his military force, against Jerusalem,+ and they began to camp against her and to build against her a siege wall all around.+

6 In the face of his denunciation who can stand?+ And who can rise up against the heat of his anger?+

His own rage will certainly be poured out like fire,+ and the very rocks* will actually be pulled down because of him.
