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.
17 aNor will Pharaoh with his mighty army and great company do anything in the war, bwhen they heap up a siege mound and build a1 wall to cut off many persons.
18 Since he despised the oath by breaking the covenant, and in fact agave his hand and still did all these things, he shall not escape.’ ”
19 Therefore thus says the Lord God: “As I live, surely My oath which he despised, and My covenant which he broke, I will recompense on his own head.
