I, the Lord, have spoken. 16 When I send against them the [b]deadly arrows of famine which [c]were for the destruction of those whom I will send to destroy you, then I will also intensify the famine upon you and break the staff of bread. 17 Moreover, (C)I will send on you famine and wild beasts, and they will bereave you of children; (D)plague and bloodshed also will pass through you, and I will bring the sword on you. I, the Lord, have spoken.’”
