24Moreover JeremiahH3414 saidH559 unto all the peopleH5971, and to all the womenH802, HearH8085 the wordH1697 of Jehovah, all JudahH3063 that are in the landH776 of EgyptH4714: 25ThusH3541 saith Jehovah of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, sayingH559, Ye and your wivesH802 have both spokenH1696 with your mouthsH6310, and with your handsH3027 have fulfilled it, sayingH559, We will surely perform our vowsH5088 that we have vowedH5087, to burn incenseH6999 to the queenH4446 of heavenH8064, and to pourH5258 out drink-offerings unto her: establishH6965 then your vowsH5088, and perform your vowsH5088. 26ThereforeH3651 hearH8085 ye the wordH1697 of Jehovah, all JudahH3063 that dwellH3427 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714: Behold, I have swornH7650 by my greatH1419 nameH8034, saith Jehovah, that my nameH8034 shall no more beH1961 namedH8034 in the mouthH6310 of any manH376 of JudahH3063 in all the landH776 of EgyptH4714, sayingH559, As the Lord Jehovah liveth. 27Behold, I watchH8245 over them for evilH7451, and not for goodH2896; and all the menH376 of JudahH3063 that are in the landH776 of EgyptH4714 shall be consumed by the swordH2719 and by the famineH7458, until there be an endH3615 of them. 28And they that escapeH6412 the swordH2719 shall returnH7725 out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714 into the landH776 of JudahH3063, few in numberH4557; and all the remnantH7611 of JudahH3063, that are goneH935 into the landH776 of EgyptH4714 to sojourn there, shall knowH3045 whose wordH1697 shall standH6965, mine, or theirs.
