Jerusalem Will Fall to Nebuchadnezzar. Jeremiah 21:1-10
The Prophet of Judah’s Downfall and Restoration
DENUNCIATION OF JUDAH, Jeremiah 1-33
3. The Sins of Her Leaders, Jeremiah 21-23
JERUSALEM WILL FALL TO NEBUCHADNEZZAR
The word which came to Jeremiah from the LORD when King Zedekiah sent to him Pashhur the son of Malchijah, and Zephaniah the priest the son of Maaseiah, saying,
“Please inquire of the LORD for us, because Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon is making war against us. Perhaps the LORD will deal [favorably] with us according to all His wonderful works and force him to withdraw from us.”
Then Jeremiah said to them, “Say this to Zedekiah:
‘Thus says the LORD, the God of Israel, “Behold, I will turn back and dull the edge of the weapons of war that are in your hands, [those] with which you fight against the king of Babylon and the Chaldeans who are besieging you outside the walls; and I will bring them into the center of this city (Jerusalem).
I Myself will fight against you with an outstretched hand and with a strong arm in anger, in fury, and in great indignation and wrath.
I will also strike the inhabitants of this city, both man and beast; they will die of a great virulent disease.
Then afterward,” says the LORD, “I will hand over Zedekiah king of Judah and his servants and the people in this city who survive the virulent disease, the sword, and the famine, to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and into the hand of their enemy, into the hand of those who seek their lives. And he will strike them with the edge of the sword; he will not spare them nor have mercy and compassion on them.”‘
“And to this people you (Jeremiah) shall also say, ‘Thus says the LORD, “Behold, I set before you the way of life and the way of death.
He who remains in this city [of Jerusalem] will die by the sword and by famine and by virulent disease. But he who goes outside and surrenders to the Chaldeans who are besieging you will live, and his life will be like a prize of war to him.
For I have set My face against this city to do harm and not good,” says the LORD. “It shall be given into the hand of the king of Babylon and he will burn it with fire.”‘
