¹² When they fast, I am ^(A)not going to listen to their cry; and when they offer ^(B)burnt offering and grain offering, I am not going to accept them. Rather I am going to ^(C)make an end of them by the ^(D)sword, famine and pestilence.”

¹² One third of you will die by ^(A)plague or be consumed by famine among you, one third will fall by the sword around you, and one third I will ^(B)scatter to every wind, and I will ^(C)unsheathe a sword behind them.

²¹ For thus says the Lord God, “How much more when ^(A)I send My four ^[a]severe judgments against Jerusalem: sword, famine, wild beasts and plague to cut off man and beast from it!
