Context Reading
25I would give you into the hand of those who seek your life, and into the hand of them of whom you are afraid, even into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and into the hand of the Chaldeans. 26I will cast you out with your mother who bore you into another country, where you were not born; and there you will die. 27But to the land to which their soul longs to return, there they will not return.” 28Is this man Coniah a despised broken vessel?Is he a vessel in which no one delights?Why are they cast out, he and his offspring,and cast into a land which they don’t know? 29O earth, earth, earth,hear Yahweh’s word!
