Jeremiah 42:12-14

New Century Version

¹² I will be kind to you, and he will also treat you with mercy and let you stay in your land.’

¹³ “But if you say, ‘We will not stay in Judah,’ you will disobey the Lord your God. ¹⁴ Or you might say, ‘No, we will go and live in Egypt. There we will not see war, or hear the trumpets of war, or be hungry.’
