Jeremiah 42:15-22

15then 1in that caseH3651 listenH8085 to the wordH1697 of the LordH3068, O remnantH7611 of JudahH3063. ThusH3541 saysH559 the LordH3068 of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, “IfH518 you reallyH7760 setH7760 your 2mindH6440 to enterH935 3EgyptH4714 and goH935 in to resideH1481 thereH8033, 16then the 4swordH2719, whichH834 you are afraidH3372 of, will overtakeH5381 you thereH8033 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714; and the famineH7458, about whichH834 you are anxiousH1672, will followH1692 closelyH1692 afterH310 you thereH8033 in EgyptH4714, and you will dieH4191 thereH8033. 17So allH3605 the menH376 whoH834 setH7760 their 5mindH6440 to goH935 to EgyptH4714 to resideH1481 thereH8033 will dieH4191 by the 6swordH2719, by famineH7458 and by pestilenceH1698; and they will 7haveH1961 noH3808 survivorsH8300 or refugeesH6412 from the calamityH7463 that I am going to bringH935 on them.”’”

18For thusH3541 saysH559 the LordH3068 of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, “As My 8angerH639 and wrathH2534 have been pouredH5413 out on the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389, soH3651 My wrathH2534 will be pouredH5413 out on you when you enterH935 EgyptH4714. And you will becomeH1961 a 9curseH7045, an objectH8047 of horrorH8047, an imprecationH7045 and a reproachH2781; and 10you will seeH7200 thisH2088 placeH4725 noH3808 moreH5750.” 19The LordH3068 has spokenH1696 to you, O remnantH7611 of JudahH3063, “Do not 11goH935 into EgyptH4714!” You should clearlyH3045 12understandH3045 that todayH3117 I have 13testifiedH5749 against you. 20For you have only 1415deceivedH8582 yourselvesH5315; for it is you who sentH7971 me to the LordH3068 your GodH430, sayingH559, “PrayH6419 for us to the LordH3068 our GodH430; and whateverH3605H834 the LordH3068 our GodH430 saysH559, tellH5046 us soH3651, and we will doH6213 it.” 21So I have 16toldH5046 you todayH3117, but you have 17not 18obeyedH8085H6963 the LordH3068 your GodH430, even in whateverH3605H834 He has sentH7971 me to tell you. 22Therefore you should nowH6258 clearlyH3045 understandH3045 that you will 19dieH4191 by the swordH2719, by famineH7458 and by pestilenceH1698, in the 20placeH4725 whereH834H8033 you wishH2654 to goH935 to resideH1481.
