Behold, the mounds, they are come unto the city to take it; and the city is given into the hand of the Chaldeans that fight against it, because of the sword, and of the famine, and of the pestilence; and what thou hast spoken is come to pass; and, behold, thou seest it.
Lo! strengthis ben bildid ayens þe citee, þat it be takun, and þe citee is youun in to þe hondis of Caldeis, and in to þe hondis of þe kyng of Babiloyne, þat fiyten ayens it, of þe face of swerd, and of hungur, and of pestilence; and what euer thingis thou spakest, bifellen, as thou thi silf seest.
