Jeremiah 42:13-17

13But if ye say, We will not dwell in this land; so as not to hearken unto the voice of Jehovah your 1God,

14saying, No; but we will go into the land of Egypt, where we shall see no war, nor hear the sound of the trumpet, nor have hunger for bread; and there will we dwell;

15— and now, therefore, hear the word of Jehovah, ye remnant of Judah: thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the 2God of Israel: If ye really set your faces to enter into Egypt, and go to sojourn there,

16then it shall come to pass, that the sword which ye fear shall overtake you there in the land of Egypt, and the famine, whereof ye are afraid, shall follow hard after you there in Egypt; and there ye shall die.

17And it shall be that all the men that have set their faces to go into Egypt to sojourn there shall die by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence; and none of them shall remain or escape from the evil that I will bring upon them.
