Jeremiah 21:8-10

8“And to this people you shall say: aThus says the Lord: Behold, bI set before you the way of life and the way of death. 9He who stays in this city shall die cby the sword, by famine, and by pestilence, but he who goes out and dsurrenders to the Chaldeans who are besieging you shall live eand shall have his life as a prize of war. 10For fI have set my face against this city for harm and gnot for good, declares the Lord: hit shall be given into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall burn it with fire.’
