Jeremiah 42:14-16
New King James Version
14 saying, ‘No, but we will go to the land of (A)Egypt where we shall see no war, nor hear the sound of the trumpet, nor be hungry for bread, and there we will dwell’— 15 Then hear now the word of the Lord, O remnant of Judah! Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: ‘If you (B)wholly[a] set (C)your faces to enter Egypt, and go to dwell there, 16 then it shall be that the (D)sword which you feared shall overtake you there in the land of Egypt; the famine of which you were afraid shall follow close after you there in Egypt; and there you shall die.
