← Jeremiah 38:22	Jeremiah 38:23 (KJV)	Jeremiah 38:24 →
And, behold, all the women that are left in the king of Judah's house [shall be] brought forth to the king of Babylon's princes, and those [women] shall say, Thy friends have set thee on, and have prevailed against thee: thy feet are sunk in the mire, [and] they are turned away back.	So they shall bring out all thy wives and thy children to the Chaldeans: and thou shalt not escape out of their hand, but shalt be taken by the hand of the king of Babylon: and thou shalt cause this city to be burned with fire.	Then said Zedekiah unto Jeremiah, Let no man know of these words, and thou shalt not die.
