8And unto this people thou dost say, Thus said Jehovah: Lo, I am setting before you the way of life, And the way of death! 9Whoso is abiding in this city—dieth, By sword, and by famine, and by pestilence, And whoso is going forth, And hath fallen unto the Chaldeans, Who are laying siege against you—liveth, And his life hath been to him for a spoil.
