9 here I am sending and I will take all the families of the north,”+ is the utterance of Jehovah, “even [sending] to Neb·u·chad·rezʹzar the king of Babylon, my servant,+ and I will bring them against this land+ and against its inhabitants and against all these nations round about;+ and I will devote them to destruction and make them an object of astonishment and something to whistle+ at and places devastated to time indefinite.+

6 And now I myself have given all these lands into the hand of Neb·u·chad·nezʹzar* the king of Babylon,*+ my servant;+ and even the wild beasts of the field I have given him to serve him.+

20 “‘As his compensation for service that he did against her I have given him the land of Egypt, because they acted for me,’+ is the utterance of the Sovereign Lord Jehovah.
