Jeremiah 42:13-17

13But if ye sayH559, We will not dwellH3427 in this landH776, neither obeyH8085 the voiceH6963 of YhwhH3068 your GodH430, 14SayingH559, No; but we will goH935 into the landH776 of EgyptH4714, where we shall seeH7200 no warH4421, nor hearH8085 the soundH6963 of the trumpetH7782, nor have hungerH7456 of breadH3899; and there will we dwellH3427: 15And now therefore hearH8085 the wordH1697 of YhwhH3068, ye remnantH7611 of JudahH3063; Thus saithH559 YhwhH3068 of ArmiesH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478; If ye whollyH7760 setH7760 your facesH6440 to enterH935 into EgyptH4714, and goH935 to sojournH1481 there; 16Then it shall come to pass, that the swordH2719, which ye fearedH3373, shall overtakeH5381 you there in the landH776 of EgyptH4714, and the famineH7458, whereof ye were afraidH1672, shall follow closeH1692 afterH310 you there in EgyptH4714; and there ye shall dieH4191.1 17So shall it be with all the menH582 that setH7760 their facesH6440 to goH935 into EgyptH4714 to sojournH1481 there; they shall dieH4191 by the swordH2719, by the famineH7458, and by the pestilenceH1698: and none of them shall remainH8300 or escapeH6412 fromH6440 the evilH7451 that I will bringH935 upon them.2
