⁶ then I will make this house ^(A)like Shiloh, and I will make this city ^(B)a curse for all the nations of the earth.’”

^22 (A)Because of them ^(B)this curse shall be used by all the exiles from Judah in Babylon: “The Lord make you like Zedekiah and Ahab, ^(C)whom the king of Babylon roasted in the fire,”

^19 (A)because your heart was penitent, and you ^(B)humbled yourself before the Lord, when you heard how I spoke against this place and against its inhabitants, that they should become ^(C)a desolation and ^(D)a curse, and you ^(E)have torn your clothes and wept before me, I also have heard you, declares the Lord.
