They will fall by the sword of their enemies before your very eyes. And I will hand Judah over to the king of Babylon, and he will carry them away to Babylon and put them to the sword. 5I will give away all the wealth of this city-all its products and valuables, and all the treasures of the kings of Judah-to their enemies. They will plunder them, seize them, and carry them off to Babylon. 6And you, Pashhur, and all who live in your house, will go into captivity.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And thou, Pashur, and all that dwell in thine house, shall go into captivity,.... Particularly he and his family should not escape; whoever did:
and thou shalt come to Babylon; being brought there, though sore against his will:
and there thou shalt die, and shalt be buried there; even in a defiled land, as all other countries were reckoned by the Jews; and to be buried in such a land, Kimchi observes, was a curse; and so it is here threatened as such:
thou, and all thy friends; that is, such as should escape the sword,
Jeremiah 20:4;
to whom thou hast prophesied lies; this shows the cause of; all this threatened destruction to him and his friends; not only because he had so ill used Jeremiah, a true prophet of the Lord; but because he was a false prophet, and his friends had hearkened to his lies, and disbelieved those prophecies that came from the Lord himself.

Thou hast prophesied lies - Pushur belonged to the warlike party, whose creed it was, that Judaea by a close alliance with Egypt might resist the arms of Assyria.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Jeremiah 20:6. And thou, Pashur - shall go into captivity — Thou shalt suffer for the false prophecies which thou hast delivered, and for thy insults to my prophet.
