you cannot win.’”

That will happen because I have decided to turn my back on
this city on account of the wicked things they have done.

Lord, warn you not to deceive yourselves into thinking that the Babylonian forces
will go away and leave you alone. For they will not go away.
37:10 For even if you were to defeat all the Babylonian forces
fighting against you so badly that only wounded men were left lying in their tents, they would get up and burn this city down.”’”

Lord says, ‘This city will certainly be handed over to the army of the king of Babylon. They will capture it.’”
