"And I myself will be fighting against you with an outstretched hand and with a strong arm, even with angry feeling and passion and in great wrath."
— Jeremiah 21:5, Bible in Basic English
“And I myself will fight against you with an outstretched hand and with a strong arm, even in anger, and in fury, and in great wrath.”
“I myself will fight against you with an outstretched hand and with a strong arm, even in anger, and in wrath, and in great indignation.”
“And I myself will fight against you with an outstretched hand and with a strong arm, even in anger, and in fury, and in great wrath.”
Will you get directions from the Lord for us; for Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon, is making war against us; it may be that the Lord will do something for us like all the wonders he has done, and make him go away from us.
Then Jeremiah said to them, This is what you are to say to Zedekiah:
The Lord God of Israel has said, See, I am turning back the instruments of war in your hands, with which you are fighting against the king of Babylon and the Chaldaeans, who are outside the walls and shutting you in; and I will get them together inside this town.
And I myself will be fighting against you with an outstretched hand and with a strong arm, even with angry feeling and passion and in great wrath.
And I will send a great disease on the people living in this town, on man and on beast, causing their death.
And after that, says the Lord, I will give up Zedekiah, king of Judah, and his servants and his people, even those in the town who have not come to their end from the disease and the sword and from need of food, into the hands of Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon, and into the hands of their haters, and into the hands of those desiring their death: he will put them to the sword; he will not let anyone get away, he will have no pity or mercy.
And to this people you are to say, The Lord has said, See, I put before you the way of life and the way of death.
