Jeremiah 20:4-6
Lexham English Bible
4 For thus says Yahweh, ‘Look, I am making you a terror to yourself and to all your friends, and they will fall by the sword of their enemies, and your eyes will be seeing it.[a] And all Judah I will give into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he will deport them to Babylon, and he will strike them with the sword. 5 And I will give all the wealth of this city, and all its acquisitions, and all its precious items, and all of the treasures of the kings of Judah I will give into the hand of their enemies, and they will plunder them, and they will seize them, and they will bring them to Babylon. 6 And you, Pashhur, and all those who live in your house will go into captivity, and you will go to Babylon, and there you will die, and there you will be buried, you, and all your friends to whom you have prophesied falsely.[b]’”

Jeremiah 20:4-6
New International Version
4 For this is what the Lord says: ‘I will make you a terror to yourself and to all your friends; with your own eyes(A) you will see them fall by the sword of their enemies. I will give(B) all Judah into the hands of the king of Babylon, who will carry(C) them away to Babylon or put them to the sword. 5 I will deliver all the wealth(D) of this city into the hands of their enemies—all its products, all its valuables and all the treasures of the kings of Judah. They will take it away(E) as plunder and carry it off to Babylon. 6 And you, Pashhur, and all who live in your house will go into exile to Babylon. There you will die and be buried, you and all your friends to whom you have prophesied(F) lies.’”
