17 Everyone who ·goes to live in [L sets their face to go to] Egypt will die ·in war [L by sword] or from ·hunger [famine] or ·terrible disease [plague; pestilence]. ·No one who goes to Egypt will live; no one will escape [L There will be no remnant or survivor from] the ·terrible things [harm; L evil] I will bring to them.’

In the same way I will ·show [pour out] my anger against you when you go to Egypt. Other nations will speak evil of you. People will be ·shocked [horrified] by what will happen to you. You will become a curse word, and people will ·insult [ridicule] you. And you will never see this place [C Judah] again.’
19 “·You who are left alive in [Remnant of] Judah, the Lord has told you, ‘Don’t go to Egypt.’ Be sure you ·understand [know] this; I warn you today

17 Indeed, all who are determined to go to Egypt to settle there will die by the sword, famine and plague;(A) not one of them will survive or escape the disaster I will bring on them.’ 18 This is what the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says: ‘As my anger and wrath(B) have been poured out on those who lived in Jerusalem,(C) so will my wrath be poured out on you when you go to Egypt. You will be a curse[a](D) and an object of horror,(E) a curse[b] and an object of reproach;(F) you will never see this place again.’(G)
19 “Remnant(H) of Judah, the Lord has told you, ‘Do not go to Egypt.’(I) Be sure of this: I warn you today
