If they were, I could cry day and night
for those of my dear people who have been killed.

He will shout in triumph like those stomping juice from the grapes
against all those who live on the earth.

27:8 But suppose a nation or a kingdom will not be subject to King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon. Suppose it will not submit to the yoke of servitude to

with war,
starvation, and disease until I have destroyed it.
