3:1 Look, the sovereign Lord who commands armies 1
is about to remove from Jerusalem 2 and Judah
every source of security, including 3
all the food and water, 4
3:2 the mighty men and warriors,
judges and prophets,
omen readers and leaders, 5
3:3 captains of groups of fifty,
the respected citizens, 6
advisers and those skilled in magical arts, 7
and those who know incantations.
