Contemporary English Version

Jeremiah Warns Zedekiah

34 ^(A) King Nebuchadnezzar^[a] had a large army made up of people from every kingdom in his empire. He and his army were attacking Jerusalem and all the nearby towns, when the Lord told me ² to say to King Zedekiah:^[b]

I am the Lord, and I am going to let Nebuchadnezzar capture this city and burn it down. ³ You will be taken prisoner and brought to Nebuchadnezzar, and he will speak with you face to face. Then you will be led away to Babylonia.
