Nothing will be left,' says Jehovah. 7 ‘And some of your sons who will issue from you, whom you will beget, will be taken away, and they will become officials in the palace of the king of Babylon.’” 8 The word of Jehovah you have spoken is good, Hezekiah replied. For he thought: There will be peace and security in my lifetime.
