“And I will give thee into the hand of them that seek thy life, and into the hand of them whose face thou fearest, even into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, and into the hand of the Chaldeans.”
God's explicit statement that He will hand Coniah over to those who seek his life and to Nebuchadnezzar announces the mechanism of judgment: the king will be captured and delivered to the Babylonian king. The reference to those who seek the king's life shows that enemies will accomplish what God decrees. The judgment is both divinely ordained and executed through natural enemies.
