Turning the country into wasteland

14:12 Turning the country into wasteland

12Then Yahweh gave me another message: 13“Humanity’s child, when a country sins against me by choosing to worship other gods, so that I decide to take action against it, then I’ll break the cycle of food production and send a famine out over it. I’ll punish both people and animals from that land 14in such a way that even if Noah, Daniel, and Yob (Job) lived in that place, they could only rescue their own lives by their being blameless in my sight. That is the master Yahweh’s declaration.

15If I send vicious wild animals through the country and make it barren so that it becomes a wasteland where no one can may pass through because of those animals, 16then even if those same three men were in it, as I live declares the master Yahweh, they wouldn’t be able to rescue even their own children—only their own lives would be saved, but the land itself would become a wasteland.

17Or if I bring a sword against that country and say, ‘Sword, go through the land and eliminate both the people and domestic animals from it’, 18then even if those three men were in it, as I live, declares the master Yahweh, they wouldn’t be able to rescue even their own sons or daughters—only their own lives would be saved.

19Or if I send a plague against that country and pour out my rage against it through bloodshed, in order to eliminate both the people and the domestic animals, 20as surely as I live, even if Noah, Daniel and Yob (Job) were in that country, they wouldn’t be able to rescue even their sons and daughters. They would save only themselves because of their being blameless in my sight. That is the master Yahweh’s declaration.

21The master Yahweh says this: I will certainly make things worse by sending my four punishments against Yerushalem to eliminate both the people and the domestic animals from it: famine, sword, wild animals, and plague.[ref] 22But listen! Despite that, a remnant will be left in the city—survivors who will go out with sons and daughters. Yes, they’ll go out to you, and you’ll see their ways and actions and understand why they deserved the punishment that I sent to Yerushalem, and about everything else that I have sent against the country. 23The survivors will relieve you all when you see their ways and their actions, because you’ll know that all those things that I’ve done against her, I didn’t do them without good reason. That is the master Yahweh’s declaration.”
