Jeremiah 27:2-12

2Thus the Lord said to me: a“Make yourself straps and byoke-bars, and put them on your neck. 3Send word ▼
▼Hebrew  Send them
 to the king of dEdom, the king of eMoab, the king of the sons of fAmmon, the king of gTyre, and the king of Sidon by the hand of the envoys who have come to Jerusalem to Zedekiah king of Judah. 4Give them this charge for their masters: ‘Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: This is what you shall say to your masters: 5“It is I who hby my great power and my outstretched arm ihave made the earth, with the men and animals that are on the earth, jand I give it to whomever it seems right to me. 6 kNow I have given all these lands into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, lmy servant, mand I have given him also the beasts of the field to serve him. 7 nAll the nations shall serve him and ohis son and phis grandson, quntil the time of his own land comes. rThen many nations and great kings shall make him their slave.

8“‘“But if any nation or kingdom will not serve this Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, sand put its neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon, I will punish that nation twith the sword, with famine, and with pestilence, declares the Lord, until I have consumed it by his hand. 9So udo not listen to your vprophets, your diviners, your dreamers, your wfortune-tellers, or your sorcerers, who are saying to you, ‘You shall not serve the king of Babylon.’ 10 xFor it is a lie that they are prophesying to you, with the result that you will be removed far from your land, and I will drive you out, and you will perish. 11 yBut any nation that will bring its neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon and serve him, I will leave on its own land, to work it and dwell there, declares the Lord.”’”

12To zZedekiah king of Judah I spoke in like manner: aa“Bring your necks under the yoke of the king of Babylon, and abserve him and his people and live.

Jeremiah 28:2-4

2“Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: acI have broken the yoke of the king of Babylon. 3 adWithin aetwo years I will bring back to this place all the vessels of the Lord’s house, which Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon took away from this place and carried to Babylon. 4I will also bring back to this place afJeconiah the son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, and all the exiles from Judah who went to Babylon, declares the Lord, agfor I will break the yoke of the king of Babylon.”
