Then on the next day, when Pashhur released Jeremiah from the stocks, Jeremiah said to him, "Pashhur is not the name the LORD has ^(C1)called you, but rather ^(F1)(C2)Magor-missabib.

"For this is what the LORD says: 'Behold, I am going to make you a ^(C1)horror to yourself and to all your friends; and while ^(C2)your eyes look on, they will fall by the sword of their enemies. So I will ^(C3)hand all Judah over to the king of Babylon, and he will take them away as ^(C4)exiles to Babylon and will kill them with the sword.

'I will also give all the ^(C1)wealth of this city, all its produce and all its valuable things—even all the treasures of the kings of Judah I will ^(C2)hand over to their enemies, and they will plunder them, take them away, and bring them to Babylon.

'And you, ^(C1)Pashhur, and all who live in your house will go into captivity; and you will enter Babylon, and there you will die and there you will be buried, you and all your ^(C2)friends to whom you have ^(C3)falsely prophesied.'"
