He will certainly be handed over to the king of Babylon. He must answer personally to the king of Babylon and confront him face to face.Zedekiah will be carried off to Babylon and will remain there until I have fully dealt with him. I, the LORD, affirm it! Even if you continue to fight against the Babylonians, you cannot win.’”
