9 “Take some large stones in your [a]hands and hide them in the mortar in the [b]brick terrace which is at the entrance of Pharaoh’s [c]palace in Tahpanhes, in the sight of [d]some of the Jews; 10 and say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, “Behold, I am going to send and get (A)Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, (B)My servant, and I am going to set his throne right over these stones that I have hidden; and he will spread his (C)canopy over them. 11 He will also come and (D)strike the land of Egypt; those who are meant for death will be given over to death, and those for captivity to captivity, and (E)those for the sword to the sword.
