¹⁶ I, in turn, will do this to you: I will appoint over you a ^(A)sudden terror, consumption and fever that will waste away the eyes and cause the ^(B)soul to pine away; also, ^(C)you will sow your seed uselessly, for your enemies will eat it up.

³¹ Your ox shall be slaughtered before your eyes, but you will not eat of it; your donkey shall be torn away from you, and will not be restored to you; your sheep shall be given to your enemies, and you will have none to save you.

^33 (A)A people whom you do not know shall eat up the produce of your ground and all your labors, and you will never be anything but oppressed and crushed continually.

¹⁷ “Israel is a ^(A)scattered ^[a]flock, the ^(B)lions have driven them away. The first one who devoured him was the ^(C)king of Assyria, and this last one who has broken his bones is ^(D)Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon.
