✦ MADE SIMPLE
I'm going to hand them over to the people who want them dead — to Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, and his army. But here's the thing: after all this goes down, the land will be lived in again, just like it used to be in the good old days. That's what the Lord says.
⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE
