21 Yes, thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, concerning the vessels which [still] remain in the house of the Lord, in the house of the king of Judah, and in Jerusalem:

22 They will be [a]carried to Babylon and there will they be until the day that I visit them [with My favor], says the Lord. Then I will bring them back and restore them to this place.

Footnotes

  1. Jeremiah 27:22 This prophesy was literally fulfilled. The remaining sacred vessels were carried to Babylon (II Kings 25:13; II Chron. 36:18; Jer. 52:17-23), where they were kept for seventy years (II Chron. 36:21), the length of the captivity as Jeremiah had foretold it (Jer. 29:10), and then brought back to Jerusalem (Ezra 1:7; 7:19).
