Jeremiah 15:1-2
1599 Geneva Bible
15 1 The Lord would hear no prayer for the Jews, 3 but threateneth to destroy them with four plagues.
1 Then said the Lord unto me, [a]Though Moses and Samuel stood before me, yet mine affection could not be toward this people: cast them out of my sight, and let them depart.
2 And if they say unto thee, Whither shall we depart? then tell them, Thus saith the Lord, (A)Such as are appointed to death, unto death: and such as are for the sword, to the sword: and such as are for the famine, to the famine: and such as are for the captivity, to the captivity.
