And he shall lead Zedekiah to Babylon, and there shall he be until I visit him, saith the LORD: though ye fight with the Chaldeans, ye shall not prosper.

And he shall lead {H3212} Zedekiah {H6667} to Babylon {H894}, and there shall he be until I visit {H6485} him, saith {H5002} the LORD {H3068}: though ye fight {H3898} with the Chaldeans {H3778}, ye shall not prosper {H6743}.

and he will lead Tzidkiyahu to Bavel, where he will stay until I remember him,' says ADONAI, 'and even if you fight the Kasdim, you will fail'?"

He will take Zedekiah to Babylon, where he will stay until I attend to him, declares the LORD. If you fight against the Chaldeans, you will not succeed.’”

and he shall bring Zedekiah to Babylon, and there shall he be until I visit him, saith Jehovah: though ye fight with the Chaldeans, ye shall not prosper?
