11 “Therefore this is what the Lord of armies, the God of Israel says: ‘Behold, I am going to (A)set My face against you for a disaster, even to eliminate all Judah. 12 And I will (B)take away the remnant of Judah who have set their [a]minds on entering the land of Egypt to reside there, and they will all [b](C)meet their end in the land of Egypt; they will fall by the sword or meet their end by famine. From the small to the great, they will die by the sword and famine; and they will become a (D)curse, an object of horror, [c]an imprecation, and a disgrace. 13 And I will (E)punish those who live in the land of Egypt, just as I have punished Jerusalem, with the sword, with famine, and with plague.
