Jeremiah 43:6-8

EasyEnglish Bible

⁶ Now the army officers led them away. They also took the men, women and children that Captain Nebuzaradan had allowed to remain with Gedaliah. They included the king's daughters. (Gedaliah was Ahikam's son and Shaphan's grandson.) They took the prophet Jeremiah and Neriah's son Baruch with them.

⁷ The people went to Egypt because they did not obey the Lord. They went as far as the city of Tahpanhes.

⁸ When they arrived in Tahpanhes, the Lord spoke to Jeremiah.
