Jeremiah 27:12 in Context — Jeremiah 27
10 Pois eles vos profetizam mentiras, para vos afastardes de vossa terra, e para que eu vos afugente, e pereçais.
11 Mas a nação que pôr seu pescoço sob o jugo do rei da Babilônia, e o servir, a essa eu deixarei ficar em seu terra, e a cultivará, e nela habitará diz o SENHOR.
12 E falei também a Zedequias, rei de Judá, conforme todas estas palavras, dizendo: Ponde vossos pescoços sob o jugo do rei da Babilônia, e servi a ele e a seu povo; então vivereis.
13 Por que morreríeis, tu e teu povo, pela espada, pela fome, pela pestilência, tal como disse o SENHOR sobre a nação que não servir ao rei da Babilônia?
14 Não escuteis as palavras dos profetas que vos falam, dizendo: Não servireis ao rei da Babilônia; pois eles vos profetizam mentiras.
