¹⁵ If you say that, listen to the message of the Lord, ·you who are left alive from [remnant of] Judah. This is what the Lord ·All-Powerful [Almighty; of Heaven’s Armies; ^Tof hosts], the God of Israel, says: ‘If you ·make up your mind [are determined] to go and live in Egypt, these things will happen: ¹⁶ ·You are afraid of war, but it will find you [^LThe sword you fear will overtake you there,] in the land of Egypt. And ·you are worried about hunger, but it will follow you into [^Lthe famine you dread will cling after you there in] Egypt, and you will die there. ¹⁷ Everyone who ·goes to live in [^Lsets their face to go to] Egypt will die ·in war [^Lby sword] or from ·hunger [famine] or ·terrible disease [plague; pestilence]. ·No one who goes to Egypt will live; no one will escape [^LThere will be no remnant or survivor from] the ·terrible things [harm; ^Levil] I will bring to them.’
