Jeremiah 44:26-27

261Nevertheless hear the word of the Lord, all Judah who are living in the land of Egypt, ‘Behold, I have 2sworn by My great name,’ says the Lord, ‘3never shall My name be invoked again by the mouth of any man of Judah in all the land of Egypt, saying, “4As the Lord 5God lives.”

27Behold, I am watching over them 6for harm and not for good, and 7all the men of Judah who are in the land of Egypt will 8meet their end by the sword and by famine until they 9are completely gone.
