Jeremiah 32:22-24

GOD’S WORD Translation

²² You gave them the land that you swore with an oath to give their ancestors, the land flowing with milk and honey. ²³ They entered and took possession of it. However, they refused to obey you or to follow your teachings. They didn’t do anything you commanded them to do, so you brought all this disaster on them.

²⁴ “ ‘See how the dirt ramps have been built up around the city to capture it! Because of wars, famines, and plagues, the city will be handed over to the Babylonians who are attacking it. What you have threatened to do has happened, as you can see.
