Jeremiah 43:2-4
Contemporary English Version

2 But Azariah, Johanan[a] and some other arrogant men said to me, “You're lying! The Lord didn't tell you to say that we shouldn't go to Egypt. 3 Baruch son of Neriah must have told you to say that. He wants the Babylonians to capture us, so they can take us away to Babylonia or even kill us.”

4 Johanan, the other army officers, and everyone else refused to stay in Judah in spite of the Lord's command.
