God of Israel
"God of the people of Israel"
this city will not be burned
"the Babylonian army will not burn this city". If the king obeyed God and surrendered to the Babylonians, he would be allowed to live and the city would not be burned. But if he refused, he would be captured and the city burned. This took faith that Yahweh was using this ungodly, Gentile nation.
