15Then the LORD said to me: "Even if Moses and Samuel were to stand before me, my heart would not go out to this people. Send them away from my presence! Let them go!H559H3068H4872H8050H5975H6440H5315H5971H7971H6440H33182And if they ask you, 'Where shall we go?' tell them, 'This is what the LORD says: "'Those destined for death, to death; those for the sword, to the sword; those for starvation, to starvation; those for captivity, to captivity.'H559H3318H559H559H3068H4194H4194H2719H2719H7458H7458H7628H76283"I will send four kinds of destroyers against them," declares the LORD, "the sword to kill and the dogs to drag away and the birds of the air and the beasts of the earth to devour and destroy.H6485H702H4940H5002H3068H2719H2026H3611H5498H5775H8064H929H776H398H78434I will make them abhorrent to all the kingdoms of the earth because of what Manasseh son of Hezekiah king of Judah did in Jerusalem.H5414H2189H2113H4467H776H1558H4519H1121H3169H4428H3063H6213H33895"Who will have pity on you, O Jerusalem? Who will mourn for you? Who will stop to ask how you are?H2550H3389H5110H5493H7592H79656You have rejected me," declares the LORD. "You keep on backsliding. So I will lay hands on you and destroy you; I can no longer show compassion.H5203H5002H3068H3212H268H5186H3027H7843H3811H51627I will winnow them with a winnowing fork at the city gates of the land. I will bring bereavement and destruction on my people, for they have not changed their ways.H2219H4214H8179H776H7921H6H5971H7725H18708I will make their widows more numerous than the sand of the sea. At midday I will bring a destroyer against the mothers of their young men; suddenly I will bring down on them anguish and terror.H490H6105H2344H3220H935H517H970H7703H6672H5307H6597H928H58929The mother of seven will grow faint and breathe her last. Her sun will set while it is still day; she will be disgraced and humiliated. I will put the survivors to the sword before their enemies," declares the LORD.H3205H7651H535H5301H5315H8121H935H3119H3117H954H2659H7611H5414H2719H6440H341H5002H306810Alas, my mother, that you gave me birth, a man with whom the whole land strives and contends! I have neither lent nor borrowed, yet everyone curses me.H188H517H3205H376H7379H376H4066H776H5383H5383H704311The LORD said, "Surely I will deliver you for a good purpose; surely I will make your enemies plead with you in times of disaster and times of distress.H3068H559H3808H518H2896H8281H8293H518H341H6293H6256H7451H6256H686912"Can a man break iron—iron from the north—or bronze?H1270H7489H6828H1270H517813Your wealth and your treasures I will give as plunder, without charge, because of all your sins throughout your country.H2428H214H5414H957H4242H2403H136614I will enslave you to your enemies in a land you do not know, for my anger will kindle a fire that will burn against you."H5674H341H776H3045H784H6919H639H334415You understand, O LORD; remember me and care for me. Avenge me on my persecutors. You are long-suffering—do not take me away; think of how I suffer reproach for your sake.H3068H3045H2142H6485H5358H7291H3947H639H750H3045H5375H278116When your words came, I ate them; they were my joy and my heart's delight, for I bear your name, O LORD God Almighty.H1697H4672H398H1697H8342H8057H3824H7121H8034H3068H430H663517I never sat in the company of revelers, never made merry with them; I sat alone because your hand was on me and you had filled me with indignation.H3427H5475H7832H5937H3427H910H6440H3027H4390H219518Why is my pain unending and my wound grievous and incurable? Will you be to me like a deceptive brook, like a spring that fails?H3511H5331H4347H605H3985H7495H391H4325H53919Therefore this is what the LORD says: "If you repent, I will restore you that you may serve me; if you utter worthy, not worthless, words, you will be my spokesman. Let this people turn to you, but you must not turn to them.H559H3068H7725H7725H5975H6440H3318H3368H2151H6310H7725H772520I will make you a wall to this people, a fortified wall of bronze; they will fight against you but will not overcome you, for I am with you to rescue and save you," declares the LORD.H5414H5971H1219H5178H2346H3898H3201H3467H5337H5002H306821"I will save you from the hands of the wicked and redeem you from the grasp of the cruel."H5337H3027H7451H6299H3709H6184
