Jeremiah 42:17-22

17So allH3605H582 whoH834 resolveH7760 to goH935 to EgyptH4714 to reside thereH8033 willH1961 dieH4191 by swordH2719 and famineH7458 and plagueH1698. Not oneH3808 of them willH1961 surviveH8300 or escapeH6412H6440 the disasterH7451 IH589 will bringH935 upon themH5921.’

18ForH3588 this is whatH3541 the LORDH3068 of HostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, saysH559: ‘Just asH834 My angerH639 and wrathH2534 were poured outH5413 onH5921 the residentsH3427 of JerusalemH3389, soH3651 will My wrathH2534 be poured outH5413 on youH5921 if you goH935 to EgyptH4714. You will becomeH1961 an object of cursingH423 and horrorH8047, of vilificationH7045 and disgraceH2781, and you will neverH3808 seeH7200 thisH2088 placeH4725 againH5750.’

19The LORDH3068 has toldH1696 youH5921, O remnantH7611 of JudahH3063, ‘Do notH408 goH935 to EgyptH4714.’ Know for sureH3045 thatH3588 I have warnedH5749 you todayH3117! 20ForH3588 youH5315H3588 have deceivedH8582 yourselvesH859 by sendingH7971 meH853 toH413 the LORDH3068 your GodH430, sayingH559, ‘PrayH6419 toH413 the LORDH3068 our GodH430 on our behalfH1157, and as for allH3605 thatH834 the LORDH3068 our GodH430H3651 saysH559, tell itH5046 to us and we will do itH6213.’

21For I have toldH5046 you todayH3117, but you have notH3808 obeyedH8085 the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068 your GodH430 in allH3605 He has sent meH7971 to tell youH413. 22Now thereforeH6258, knowH3045 for sureH3045 thatH3588 by swordH2719 and famineH7458 and plagueH1698 you will dieH4191 in the placeH4725 whereH834 you desireH2654 to goH935 to resideH1481H8033.”
