12
Son of man, say now to the provoking house, Know ye not what these things were? say , Whenever the king of Babylon shall come against Jerusalem, then he shall take her king and her princes, and shall take them home to Babylon.
13
And he shall take of the seed royal, and shall make a covenant with him, and shall bind him with an oath: and he shall take the princes of the land:
14
that it may become a weak kingdom, so as never to lift itself up, that he may keep his covenant, and establish it.
15
And he shall revolt from him, to send his messengers into Egypt, that may give him horses and much people; shall he prosper? shall he that acts as an adversary be preserved? and shall he that transgresses the covenant be preserved?
16
I live, saith the Lord, verily in place where the king is that made him king, who dishonoured my oath, and who broke my covenant, shall he die with him in the midst of Babylon.
