Jeremiah 29:16-19

« Jer 28Jer 29Jer 30 »

16 for thus says Yahweh concerning the king who sits on the throne of David and concerning all the people who live in this city, your brothers who did ^anot go with you into exile— 17 thus says Yahweh of hosts, ‘Behold, I am sending upon them the ^asword, famine, and pestilence, and I will make them like ^bsplit-open figs that cannot be eaten due to rottenness. 18 I will pursue them with the sword, with famine, and with pestilence; and I will ^agive them over to be a terror to all the kingdoms of the earth, to be a ^bcurse and an object of horror and of ^chissing, and a reproach among all the nations where I have banished them, 19 because they have ^anot listened to My words,’ declares Yahweh, ‘which I sent to them by ^bMy slaves the prophets, rising up early and sending; but you did not listen,’ declares Yahweh.
