Jeremiah continues speaking with King Zedekiah.
All the women who are left ... will be brought out to the officials of the king of Babylon

You have been deceived by your men of peace
This can be translated in active form. Alternate translation: "Your men of peace have deceived you" (See: rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-activepassive)
men of peace
This is an ironic term for people whom the speaker thought were friends but turned out to be enemies. See how you translated it in Jeremiah 20:10. Alternate translation: "treacherous friends" or "so-called friends" (See: rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-irony)
Your feet are now sunk into the mud
The king is now helpless. (See: rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor)
