Jeremiah 42:19-21

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

¹⁹ The Lord has said to you, O remnant of Judah, Do not go to Egypt. Be well aware that I have warned you today ²⁰ that you have made a fatal mistake. For you yourselves sent me to the Lord your God, saying, “Pray for us to the Lord our God, and whatever the Lord our God says, tell us and we will do it.” ²¹ So I have told you today, but you have not obeyed the voice of the Lord your God in anything that he sent me to tell you.
