Jeremiah 34:3 And thou shalt not escape out of his hand; but thou shalt surely be taken, and thou shalt be delivered into his hand: and thy eyes shall see the eyes of the king of Babylon, and his mouth shall speak with thy mouth, and thou shalt go to Babylon.

Go to, yet shall not see Babylon, (Ezechiel 12:13.) his eyes being put out, Jeremias 32:4. (Calmet) See 4 Kings 25:7. (Worthington) --- Paine objects this as a false prophecy, though it was verified so terribly. Daniel, etc., would not neglect to bury the king. (Watson)
