After this declares the LORD , I will hand over Zedekiah, king of Judah, his servants, the people, and those remaining in this city who survived the pestilence , the sword, and the famine into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon, into the hands of their enemies, and into the hands of those seeking their lives.
