2“This is what the LORD says: Whoever stays in this city will die by sword and famine and plague, but whoever surrenders to the Chaldeans will live; he will retain his life like a spoil of war, and he will live.
3This is what the LORD says: This city will surely be delivered into the hands of the army of the king of Babylon, and he will capture it.”
— Jeremiah 38:2-3
