Jeremiah 29:18-20

21st Century King James Version

¹⁸ And I will persecute them with the sword, with the famine, and with the pestilence, and will deliver them to be removed to all the kingdoms of the earth, to be a curse and an astonishment and a hissing, and a reproach among all the nations whither I have driven them,

¹⁹ because they have not hearkened to My words, saith the Lord, which I sent unto them by My servants the prophets, rising up early and sending them; but ye would not hear, saith the Lord.

²⁰ “Hear ye therefore the word of the Lord, all ye of the captivity, whom I have sent from Jerusalem to Babylon.
