Jeremiah 44:12-14

Evangelical Heritage Version

¹² I will remove the survivors of Judah who are determined to go to Egypt and settle there, and they will be consumed. In the land of Egypt they will fall. They will be consumed by sword and famine. They will die, from the least to the greatest, by sword and famine. They will become an object of horror and derision, an object of cursing and ridicule. ¹³ I will punish those who go to live in the land of Egypt as I punished Jerusalem—with the sword, famine, and plague— ¹⁴ so that none of the survivors of Judah who have gone to live in Egypt will escape or survive to return to the land of Judah, to which they long to return in order to live there, because none of them will return, except a few refugees.
