^12 (A)When they fast, I will not hear their cry; and ^(B)when they offer burnt offering and grain offering, I will not accept them. But ^(C)I will consume them by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence.”

² And it shall be, if they say to you, ‘Where should we go?’ then you shall tell them, ‘Thus says the Lord:

¹⁰ And I will send the sword, the famine, and the pestilence among them, till they are ^[a]consumed from the land that I gave to them and their fathers.’ ”

^12 (A)One-third of you shall die of the pestilence, and be consumed with famine in your midst; and one-third shall fall by the sword all around you; and ^(B)I will scatter another third to all the winds, and I will draw out a sword after ^(C)them.
