爾民三分之一、必亡於瘟疫饑饉、三分之一、必亡於鋒刃、三分之一、必散於四方、我亦襲之以白刃、

外有鋒刃、內有瘟疫饑饉、在田者亡於鋒刃、在邑者亡於饑饉瘟疫。

於爾上帝耶和華所錫之地、四境之內、城垣鞏固、高聳特甚、爾恃之以無恐、必見圍於敵、攻而下之。爾敵環而攻爾、勢甚危迫、使爾食己所生之子女、即爾上帝耶和華所賜者。

主耶和華又曰、我使四災降於耶路撒冷、鋒刃、饑饉、暴獸、瘟疫、使人畜靡有孑遺、其害豈非尤重乎。

其言曰、仍居邑中者、必戮以鋒刃、因以饑饉、重以疫癘、惟出邑歸誠迦勒底人者、生命可保。

既減爾食、十婦炊餅於一爐、較量其數、爾雖得食、不能果腹。

哺乳之嬰、厥口甚渴、齦閉舌卷兮、孩提求餅、無人擘而予之兮。素飫肥甘者、今亡於逵衢兮、昔衣絳袍、為人提抱者、今偃於糞壤兮。昔所多馬人蹈罪愆、忽致傾圮、非人使然兮、今我民犯罪遭刑、較彼尤甚兮。昔彼顯宦、皜皜無比、若雪之白、若乳之潔、色若珊瑚、體若青玉兮。今其容變黑、形消骨立、有若枯木、至彼市廛、無人識之兮。寧殞於鋒刃、不願死於饑饉、土產已絶、日漸衰微兮。維彼婦女、素懷矜恤、今民淪喪、烹子而食兮。

四月九日、邑民糧罄饑甚。

爾必取小麥、麰麥、巨豆、細豆、黍與粗麥、置於一器、以之為餅、爾身側卧、凡歷三百有九十日其時爾必食之。權衡輕重、日食十兩、隨時而食。當量水隨時而飲、一升有半、爾食麥餅、必以人之糞壤炊之、使眾目擊。耶和華曰、我驅以色列族、散於異邦、必使食不潔之餅、亦若此、我曰、我主耶和華與、我未嘗不潔、自幼迄今、自斃之畜、噬傷之獸、未嘗果腹、可惡之物、未嘗入口。主曰、爾炊餅、我許爾取牛糞、以代人矢、又曰、人子、吾必使耶路撒冷人、養生之餅匱乏、將權餅而食、量水而飲、不敢少過、中心危懼、待餅水俱絶、互相觀望、因罪而亡。

我降災於爾邑、使父子相食、遺民散於四方。

西底家王命人幽耶利米於外獄、曰、於烘餅街、取餅一方、與之食、邑中餅盡、然後已。於是耶利米居於外獄。

四五七十月間、猶大家禁食之時、將為欣喜歡忭之節期、惟爾所專務者、真實和平而已、我萬有之主耶和華已言之矣。

十一年四月九日取之。
