¹⁷ “Therefore thus says the Lord, ‘You have not obeyed Me in proclaiming ^[a]release each man to his brother and each man to his neighbor. Behold, I am ^(A)proclaiming a ^[b]release to you,’ declares the Lord, ‘to the ^(B)sword, to the pestilence and to the famine; and I will make you a ^(C)terror to all the kingdoms of the earth.

¹⁷ So all the men who set their ^[a]mind to go to Egypt to reside there will die by the ^(A)sword, by famine and by pestilence; and they will ^(B)have no survivors or refugees from the calamity that I am going to bring on them.”’”
