12 “Say now to athe rebellious house: ‘Do you not know what these things mean?’ Tell them, ‘Indeed bthe king of Babylon went to Jerusalem and took its king and princes, and led them with him to Babylon.
13 aAnd he took the king’s offspring, made a covenant with him, band put him under oath. He also took away the mighty of the land,
14 that the kingdom might be abrought low and not lift itself up, but that by keeping his covenant it might stand.
15 But ahe rebelled against him by sending his ambassadors to Egypt, bthat they might give him horses and many people. cWill he prosper? Will he who does such things escape? Can he break a covenant and still be delivered?
16 ‘As I live,’ says the Lord God, ‘surely ain the place where the king dwells who made him king, whose oath he despised and whose covenant he broke—with him in the midst of Babylon he shall die.
