3 Envoie-les au roi d’Édom, au roi de Moab, au roi des enfants d’Ammon, au roi de Tyr et au roi de Sidon, par les envoyés qui sont venus à Jérusalem auprès de Sédécias, roi de Juda,

4 et à qui tu donneras mes ordres pour leurs maîtres, en disant: Ainsi parle l’Éternel des armées, le Dieu d’Israël: Voici ce que vous direz à vos maîtres:

5 C’est moi qui ai fait la terre, les hommes et les animaux qui sont sur la terre, par ma grande puissance et par mon bras étendu, et je donne la terre à qui cela me plaît.

6 Maintenant je livre tous ces pays entre les mains de Nebucadnetsar, roi de Babylone, mon serviteur; je lui donne aussi les animaux des champs, pour qu’ils lui soient assujettis.

7 Toutes les nations lui seront soumises, à lui, à son fils, et au fils de son fils, jusqu’à ce que le temps de son pays arrive, et que des nations puissantes et de grands rois l’asservissent.
