Jeremiah 21:5-7

New Catholic Bible

⁵ I myself will fight against you with outstretched hand and mighty arm, in anger, fury, and great rage.

⁶ “I will strike down the inhabitants of this city, both man and beast. They will die as the result of a terrible plague. ⁷ After that, says the Lord, I will deliver King Zedekiah of Judah and his servants and the people, all those in this city who have managed to survive pestilence, war, and famine, into the hands of King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon, and into the hands of their enemies and those who are determined to slay them. He will put them to the sword and show them no pity or mercy or compassion.
