Jeremiah 43:10-12
Common English Bible
10 After that, say to the people: The Lord of heavenly forces, the God of Israel, proclaims: I’m sending for my servant King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon, who[a] will set his throne over these stones and will spread his canopy over them. 11 He will come and ravage the land of Egypt:
those marked for disaster, to disaster,
and those marked for exile, to exile.
and those marked for war, to war.
12 He will set on fire[b] the temples of the Egyptian gods. He will burn them down and carry off their gods. He will wrap the land of Egypt around himself, just as a shepherd wraps[c] his garment around himself, and he will move on unharmed.[d]
