“Yet you have not listened to me,”
says the LORD, “that you may provoke me to anger with the work of your hands to your own hurt.”
Therefore the LORD of Armies says: “Because you have not heard my words, behold, I will send and take all the families of the north,”
says the LORD, “and I will send to Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, my servant, and will bring them against this land, and against its inhabitants, and against all these nations around.
I will utterly destroy them, and make them an astonishment, and a hissing, and perpetual desolations.
