Therefore he brought upon them the king of the Chaldees, who slew their young men with the sword in the house of their sanctuary, and had no compassion upon young man or maiden, old man, or him that stooped for age: he gave them all into his hand.

Verse 17 is found in chapter 36 of 2 Chronicles. God repeatedly sends messengers, but the people mock them until there is no remedy. Babylon destroys Jerusalem, burns the temple, and takes the people into exile. The years of desolation are connected with the fulfillment of the prophetic word. The disaster becomes the culmination of the judgment announced for generations.

Denn er führte über sie den König der Chaldäer und ließ erwürgen ihre junge Mannschaft mit dem Schwert im Hause ihres Heiligtums und verschonte weder die Jünglinge noch die Jungfrauen, weder die Alten noch die Großväter; alle gab er sie in seine Hand.
Por lo cual trajo contra ellos al rey de los Caldeos, que mató a cuchillo sus mancebos en la casa de su santuario, sin perdonar joven, ni doncella, ni viejo, ni decrépito; todos los entregó en sus manos.
Alors l'Eternel fit monter contre eux le roi des Chaldéens, et tua par l'épée leurs jeunes gens dans la maison de leur sanctuaire; il n'épargna ni le jeune homme, ni la jeune fille, ni le vieillard, ni l'homme aux cheveux blancs, il livra tout entre ses mains.
Ed egli fece salir contro a loro il re de’ Caldei, il quale uccise i lor giovani con la spada, nella casa del lor santuario, e non risparmiò nè giovane, nè vergine, nè vecchio, nè decrepito; egli li diede tutti in mano di quello;
Porque fez subir contra eles o rei dos caldeus, o qual matou os seus jovens à espada, na casa do seu santuário, e não teve piedade nem dos jovens, nem das donzelas, nem dos velhos, nem dos decrépitos; a todos entregou na sua mão.
所以,耶和華使 迦勒底 人的王來攻擊他們,在他們聖殿裏用刀殺了他們的壯丁,不憐憫他們的少男少女、老人長者。耶和華把所有的人都交在他手裏。
