Jerusalem to Be Destroyed

¹⁸ The ·Lord spoke his word [^Lword of the Lord came] to me, saying: ¹⁹ “·Human [^TSon of man; 2:1], mark two roads that the king of Babylon and his sword can follow. Both of these roads will start from the same country. And make signs where the road divides and one way goes toward the city. ²⁰ Mark one sign to show the road ·he can take with his sword [^Lfor the sword to come] to Rabbah in the land of the Ammonites. Mark the other sign to show the road to Judah and Jerusalem, which is protected with strong walls [^Cmoving south from Syria, the roads branch east and west of the Jordan River].
