Jeremiah 21:8

8 “But ^{▼▼ Heb “And/But unto this people you shall say…” “But” is suggested here by the unusual word order which offsets what they are to say to Zedekiah (v. 3).} tell the people of Jerusalem ^{▼▼ Heb “these people.”} that the Lord says, ‘I will give you a choice between two courses of action. One will result in life; the other will result in death. ^{▼▼ Heb “Behold I am setting before you the way of life and the way of death.”}
