5 And I myself, will fight against you, with a hand outstretched, and with an arm of strength,—and with anger and with wrath and with great indignation;

6 and I will smite the inhabitants of this city, both man and beast,—of a great pestilence, shall they die.

7 And after that, Declareth Yahweh—Will I deliver Zedekiah king of Judah and his servants, and the people—even such as are left in this city from the pestilence from the sword and from the famine,—into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, even into the hand of their enemies, and into the hand of them who are seeking their life,—and he will smite them with the edge of the sword, he will not have pity on them nor will he spare nor will he have compassion.
