4 ‘This is what Jehovah the God of Israel says: “Here I am turning around against you* the weapons of war that are in your own hands, with which you are fighting the king of Babylon+ and the Chal·deʹans who are outside the wall besieging you. And I will gather them into the middle of this city.

15 But the king finally rebelled against him+ by sending his messengers to Egypt to obtain horses+ and a large army from them.+ Will he succeed? Will the one doing these things escape punishment? Can he break the covenant and still escape?’+
