Common English Bible
Jeremiah 46:18-20
Common English Bible
18 As I live, declares the king,
whose name is the Lord of heavenly forces,
one is coming
just as surely as Tabor is in the mountains
and Carmel is by the sea.[a]
19 Get what you need for deportation,
you inhabitants of Egypt.[b]
Memphis will be reduced to a wasteland,
a ruin with no one left.
20 Egypt is a beautiful, yes, beautiful heifer,
but a horsefly from the north
is coming to bite her.[c]
