And though they go into captivity before their enemies, thence will I command the sword, and it shall slay them: and I will set mine eyes upon them for evil, and not for good.
Though they go into captivity before their enemies - going willingly before their foes like a flock of sheep, hoping to save their lives by voluntarily surrendering to the foe.
Thence will I command the sword, and it shall slay them - Leviticus 26:33, "I will scatter you among the pagan, and will draw out a sword after you."
