24:027:008 And it shall come to pass, that the nation
and kingdom which
will
not serve the same Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon,
and
that will not put their neck under the yoke of the
king of
Babylon,
that nation will I punish, saith the lord, with
the
sword,
and with the famine, and with the pestilence, until
I
have
consumed them by his hand.
24:027:009 Therefore hearken not ye to your prophets,
nor to your
diviners,
nor to your dreamers, nor to your enchanters, nor to
your
sorcerers, which speak unto you, saying, Ye shall not
serve
the king of Babylon:
24:027:010 For they prophesy a lie unto you, to remove
you far from your
land;
and that I should drive you out, and ye should perish.
24:027:011 But the nations that bring their neck under
the yoke of the
king
of Babylon, and serve him, those will I let remain
still
in
their own land, saith the lord; and they shall
till it, and
dwell
therein.
24:027:012 I spake also to Zedekiah king of Judah
according to all these
words,
saying, Bring your necks under the yoke of the king
of
Babylon,
and serve him and his people, and live.
24:027:013 Why will ye die, thou and thy people, by
the sword, by the
famine,
and by the pestilence, as the lord hath spoken
against
the
nation that will not serve the king of Babylon?
24:027:014 Therefore hearken not unto the words of
the prophets that
speak
unto you, saying, Ye shall not serve the king of
Babylon:
for they prophesy a lie unto you.
24:027:015 For I have not sent them, saith the lord,
yet they prophesy a
lie
in my name; that I might drive you out, and that ye
might
perish,
ye, and the prophets that prophesy unto you.
24:027:016 Also I spake to the priests and to all
this people, saying,
Thus
saith the lord; Hearken not to the words of your
prophets
that
prophesy unto you, saying, Behold, the vessels of the
LORD’s
house shall now shortly be brought again from Babylon:
for
they prophesy a lie unto you.
24:027:017 Hearken not unto them; serve the king of
Babylon, and live:
wherefore
should this city be laid waste?
24:027:018 But if they be prophets, and if the word
of the lord be with
them,
let them now make intercession to the lord of
hosts,
that
the vessels which are left in the house of the lord,
and
in
the house of the king of Judah, and at Jerusalem, go
not to
Babylon.
24:027:019 For thus saith the lord of hosts concerning
the pillars, and
concerning
the sea, and concerning the bases, and concerning
the
residue of the vessels that remain in this city.
