Jeremiah 27:8 in Context — Jeremiah 27

6 E agora dei todas estas terras na mão de Nabucodonosor, rei de Babilônia, meu servo, e até mesmo os animais do campo eu lhe dei, para que o sirvam.

7 E todas as nações servirão a ele, a seu filho, e ao filho de seu filho, até que também venha o tempo de sua própria terra; então servirá a muitas nações e grandes reis.

8 E será que a nação e o reino que não servir a Nabucodonosor, rei da Babilônia, e que não puser seu pescoço sob do jugo do rei de Babilônia, então com espada, com fome e com pestilência castigarei tal nação, diz o SENHOR, até que eu os consuma por meio de sua mão.

9 E vós não deis ouvidos a vossos profetas, nem a vossos adivinhos, nem a vossos sonhos, nem a vossos videntes, nem a vossos encantadores, que vos falam, dizendo: Não servireis ao rei da Babilônia.

10 Pois eles vos profetizam mentiras, para vos afastardes de vossa terra, e para que eu vos afugente, e pereçais.
