This prophecy was given in 612 B.C.E., and its initial fulfillment refers to the destruction of Jerusalem by the Babylonian army ​ — something that was to occur just five years later.
سپس به مردان پُتک به دست گفته شد که از میان شهر بگذرند و همهٔ کسانی را که بر پیشانی خود نشان ندارند ،‏ هلاک سازند .‏
