25 The Lord of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: See, I will punish Amon of Thebes, and Pharaoh, and Egypt, with their gods and their kings, even Pharaoh and all those who trust in him. 26 And I shall deliver them into the hand of those who seek their lives and into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon and into the hand of his servants. But afterwards it will be inhabited, as in the days of old, says the Lord.

God Will Save Israel

27 But do not fear, O My servant Jacob,
    and do not be dismayed, O Israel.
For I will save you from afar off,
    and your seed from the land of their captivity;
and Jacob shall return and be in rest and at ease,
    and no one shall make him afraid.

25 The Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says: “I am about to bring punishment on Amon god of Thebes,(A) on Pharaoh,(B) on Egypt and her gods(C) and her kings, and on those who rely(D) on Pharaoh. 26 I will give them into the hands(E) of those who want to kill them—Nebuchadnezzar king(F) of Babylon and his officers. Later, however, Egypt will be inhabited(G) as in times past,” declares the Lord.

27 “Do not be afraid,(H) Jacob(I) my servant;(J)
    do not be dismayed, Israel.
I will surely save you out of a distant place,
    your descendants from the land of their exile.(K)
Jacob will again have peace and security,
    and no one will make him afraid.
