13The word of Yahweh came to me the second time, saying, What see you? I said, I see a boiling caldron; and the face of it is from the north.
14Then Yahweh said to me, Out of the north evil shall break forth on all the inhabitants of the land.
15For, behold, I will call all the families of the kingdoms of the north, says Yahweh; and they shall come, and they shall set everyone his throne at the entrance of the gates of Jerusalem, and against all the walls of it round about, and against all the cities of Judah.
16I will utter my judgments against them touching all their wickedness, in that they have forsaken me, and have burned incense to other gods, and worshipped the works of their own hands.
17You therefore gird up your loins, and arise, and speak to them all that I command you: don`t be dismayed at them, lest I dismay you before them.
18For, behold, I have made you this day a fortified city, and an iron pillar, and brazen walls, against the whole land, against the kings of Judah, against the princes of it, against the priests of it, and against the people of the land.
19They shall fight against you; but they shall not prevail against you: for I am with you, says Yahweh, to deliver you.
