Jeremiah 46:14-28
14DeclareH5046 ye in EgyptH4714, and publish in MigdolH4024, and publish in MemphisH5297 and in TahpanhesH8471: sayH559 ye, StandH3320 forth, and prepareH3559 thee; for the swordH2719 hath devouredH398 roundH5439 about thee. 15WhyH4069 are thy strong onesH47 swept away? they stoodH5975 not, because Jehovah did drive them. 16He made manyH7235 to stumbleH3782, yea, they fellH5307 oneH376 upon another: and they saidH559, AriseH6965, and let us goH7725 again to our own peopleH5971, and to the landH776 of our nativity, from the oppressingH3238 swordH2719. 17They cried there, PharaohH6547 kingH4428 of EgyptH4714 is but a noise; he hath let the appointedH4150 timeH4150 passH5674 by. 18As I live, saith the KingH4428, whose nameH8034 is Jehovah of hostsH6635, surely like TaborH8396 among the mountainsH2022, and like CarmelH3760 by the seaH3220, so shall he comeH935. 19O thou daughterH1323 that dwellest in EgyptH4714, furnish thyself to go into captivity; for MemphisH5297 shall becomeH1961 a desolationH8047, and shall beH1961 burnt up, without inhabitantH3427. 20EgyptH4714 is a very fair heiferH5697; but destruction out of the northH6828 is comeH935, it is comeH935. 21AlsoH1571 her hired men in the midstH7130 of her are like calvesH5695 of the stallH4770; for they alsoH1571 are turnedH6437 backH6437, they are fledH5127 away togetherH3162, they did not standH5975: for the dayH3117 of their calamityH343 is comeH935 upon them, the timeH6256 of their visitation. 22The soundH6963 thereof shall goH935 like the serpent; for they shall march with an armyH2428, and comeH935 against her with axes, as hewers of woodH6086. 23They shall cutH3772 down her forestH3293, saith Jehovah, though it cannot be searchedH2713; because they are more than the locustsH697, and are innumerable. 24The daughterH1323 of EgyptH4714 shall be putH5414 to shame; she shall be delivered into the handH3027 of the peopleH5971 of the northH6828. 25Jehovah of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, saith: Behold, I will punishH6485 AmonH528 of No, and PharaohH6547, and EgyptH4714, with her godsH430, and her kingsH4428; even PharaohH6547, and them that trustH982 in him: 26and I will deliver them into the handH3027 of those that seekH1245 their livesH5315, and into the handH3027 of Nebuchadrezzar kingH4428 of BabylonH894, and into the handH3027 of his servantsH5650; and afterwards it shall be inhabited, as in the daysH3117 of old, saith Jehovah.
27But fearH3372 not thou, O JacobH3290 my servantH5650, neither be dismayedH2865, O IsraelH3478: for, lo, I will saveH3467 thee from afarH7350, and thy seedH2233 from the landH776 of their captivityH7628; and JacobH3290 shall returnH7725, and shall be quietH8252 and at easeH7599, and none shall make him afraidH3372. 28FearH3372 not thou, O JacobH3290 my servantH5650, saith Jehovah; for I am with thee: for I will makeH6213 a full end of all the nationsH1471 whither I have drivenH5080 thee; but I will not makeH6213 a full end of thee, but I will correct thee in measure, and will in no wise leaveH5352 thee unpunishedH5352.
