Jeremiah 38:21-23
1599 Geneva Bible
21 But if thou wilt refuse to go forth, this is the word that the Lord hath showed me.
22 And behold, all the women that are [a]left in the king of Judah’s house, shall be brought forth to the king of Babel’s princes, and those women shall say, Thy friends have persuaded thee, and have prevailed against thee: thy feet are fastened in the mire, and they are turned back.
23 So they shall bring out all thy wives, and thy children to the Chaldeans, and thou shalt not escape out of their hands, but shalt be taken by the hand of the king of Babel: and this city shalt thou cause to be burnt with fire.
