GOD’S WORD Translation

¹⁰ They are prophesying lies to you. They will cause you to be taken far from your lands. I’ll scatter you, and you will die. ¹¹ But suppose a nation surrenders to the king of Babylon and serves him.

¹² I spoke the same message to King Zedekiah of Judah, “Surrender to the king of Babylon, serve him and his people, and you will stay alive.
