Jeremiah 43:2-7

2AzariahH5838 sonH1121 of HoshaiahH1955, JohananH3110 sonH1121 of KareahH7143, and allH3605 the arrogantH2086 menH582 saidH559 toH413 JeremiahH3414, “YouH859 are lyingH1696H8267! The LORDH3068 our GodH430 has notH3808 sent youH7971 to sayH559, ‘You must notH3808 goH935 to EgyptH4714 to reside thereH8033H1481.’ 3RatherH3588, BaruchH1263 sonH1121 of NeriahH5374 is incitingH5496 youH853 against us toH4616 deliverH5414 usH853 into the handsH3027 of the ChaldeansH3778,1 so that they may put us to deathH4191 or exileH1540 usH853 to BabylonH894!”

4So JohananH3110 sonH1121 of KareahH7143 and allH3605 the commandersH8269 of the forcesH2428H3605H5971 disobeyedH3808H8085 the commandH6963 of the LORDH3068 to stayH3427 in the landH776 of JudahH3063. 5Instead, JohananH3110 sonH1121 of KareahH7143 and allH3605 the commandersH8269 of the forcesH2428 tookH3947 the wholeH3605 remnantH7611 of JudahH3063, those whoH834 had returnedH7725 to the landH776 of JudahH3063 from allH3605 the nationsH1471 to whichH834 they had been scatteredH5080H8033H1481, 6the menH1397, the womenH802, the childrenH2945, the king’sH4428 daughtersH1323, and everyoneH3605H5315 whomH834 NebuzaradanH5018 captainH7227 of the guardH2876 had allowed to remainH5117 withH854 GedaliahH1436 sonH1121 of AhikamH296, the sonH1121 of ShaphanH8227, as well asH853 JeremiahH3414 the prophetH5030 and BaruchH1263 sonH1121 of NeriahH5374.

7So they enteredH935 the landH776 of EgyptH4714 becauseH3588 they did notH3808 obeyH8085 the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068, and they wentH935 as far asH5704 TahpanhesH8471.
