2 And it must occur that should they say to you, ‘Where shall we go out to?’ you must also say to them, ‘This is what Jehovah has said: “Whoever is for deadly plague, to deadly plague! And whoever is for the sword, to the sword! And whoever is for the famine, to the famine!+ And whoever is for the captivity, to the captivity!”’+

13 And I will hold an accounting against those dwelling in the land of Egypt, just as I held an accounting against Jerusalem, with the sword, with the famine and with the pestilence.+

12 A third of you—by the pestilence they will die,+ and by famine they will come to their end in the midst of you.+ And another third—by the sword they will fall all around you. And the [last] third I shall scatter even to every wind,+ and a sword is what I shall draw out after them.+

9 At length I said: “I shall not keep shepherding YOU.*+ The one that is dying, let her die. And the one that is being effaced, let her be effaced.+ And as for the ones left remaining, let them devour, each one the flesh of her companion.”+
