And unto this people thou shalt say, Thus saith HASHEM; Hineni, I set before you the Derech HaChayyim and the Derech HaMavet. He that abideth in this city shall die by cherev, and by ra'av (famine), and by dever (plague); but he that goeth out, and falleth to the Kasdim (Chaldeans) that besiege you, he shall live, and his nefesh shall be unto him as plunder.
