7 “This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: Tell the king of Judah, who sent you to inquire of me, ‘Pharaoh’s army, which has marched out to support you, will go back to its own land, to Egypt.
8 And the Chalde'ans shall come back and fight against this city; they shall take it and burn it with fire.
8 Then the Babylonians will return and attack this city; they will capture it and burn it down.’
