# Do not deceive yourselves

The word "yourselves" refers to King Zedekiah and the rest of the people of Judah.

# Surely the Chaldeans are leaving us

The people of Judah think that they will be safe because the Chaldeans had left. Alternate translation: "Surely we are safe because the Chaldeans are leaving us" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-explicit]])
