22 and hast given them this land, which thou didst swear to their fathers to give them, a land flowing with milk and honey;
23 and they came in, and possessed it; but they obeyed not thy voice, neither walked in thy law; they have done nothing of all that thou commandedst them to do: therefore thou hast caused all this evil to come upon them.

25 And thou hast said unto me, O Lord [God], Buy thee the field for money, and take witnesses; for the city is given into the hand of the Chalde´ans.
