- The word which came to Jeremiah from the LORD, when Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon and all his army, with all the kingdoms of the earth that were under his dominion and all the peoples, were fighting against Jerusalem and against all its cities, saying,
- "Thus says the LORD God of Israel, 'Go and speak to Zedekiah king of Judah and say to him: "Thus says the LORD, 'Behold, I am giving this city into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he will burn it with fire.
- 'You will not escape from his hand, for you will surely be captured and delivered into his hand; and you will see the king of Babylon eye to eye, and he will speak with you face to face, and you will go to Babylon.'"'
- "Yet hear the word of the LORD, O Zedekiah king of Judah! Thus says the LORD concerning you, 'You will not die by the sword.
- 'You will die in peace; and as spices were burned for your fathers, the former kings who were before you, so they will burn spices for you; and they will lament for you, "Alas, lord!"' For I have spoken the word," declares the LORD.

- 巴比伦王尼布甲尼撒率领他的全军和地上属他的各国各邦,攻打耶路撒冷和属耶路撒冷所有的城邑。那时,耶和华的话临到耶利米说,
- 耶和华以色列的神说,你去告诉犹大王西底家,耶和华如此说,我要将这城交付巴比伦王的手,他必用火焚烧。
- 你必不能逃脱他的手,定被拿住,交在他的手中。你的眼要见巴比伦王的眼,他要口对口和你说话,你也必到巴比伦去。
- 犹大王西底家阿,你还要听耶和华的话。耶和华论到你如此说,你必不被刀剑杀死,
- 你必平安而死,人必为你焚烧物件,好像为你列祖,就是在你以前的先王焚烧一般。人必为你举哀,说,哀哉。我主阿。耶和华说,这话是我说的。
