^8 (A)Why do you provoke me to anger with the works of your hands, ^(B)making offerings to other gods in the land of Egypt where you have come to live, so that you may be cut off and become ^(C)a curse and a taunt among all the nations of the earth?

¹⁸ “For thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: ^(A)As my anger and my wrath were poured out on the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so my wrath will be poured out on you when you go to Egypt. ^(B)You shall become an execration, a horror, a curse, and a taunt. You shall see this place no more.
