Jeremiah 21 from 4Q70 Jeremiaha 1 The word which came to Jeremiah from Yahweh, when king Zedekiah sent to him Pashhur the son of Malchijah, and Zephaniah the son of Maaseiah, the priest, saying,
Jeremiah 21 from Scroll 4Q72 Jeremiahc 7 Afterward,”
says Yahweh, “I will deliver Zedekiah king of Judah, his
servants,
and the people, even those who are left in this city from the pestilence, and from the sword, 8 “You shall say to this people, ‘Yahweh says: “Behold, I set before you the way of life and the way of death. 9 He who remains in this city will die by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence; but he who goes out, and passes over to the Chaldeans who besiege you, he will live, and he will escape with his life. 10 For I have set my face on this city for evil, and not for good,” says Yahweh. “It will be given into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he will burn it with fire.” ’
