Jeremiah 44:26-28

Holman Christian Standard Bible

²⁶ “Therefore, hear the word of the Lord, all you Judeans who live in the land of Egypt: ‘I have sworn by My great name,^(A) says Yahweh, that My name will never again be invoked by anyone of Judah in all the land of Egypt,^(B) saying, “As the Lord God lives.” ²⁷ I am watching over them for disaster and not for good,^(C) and every man of Judah who is in the land of Egypt will meet his end by sword or famine until they are finished off. ²⁸ Those who escape the sword will return from the land of Egypt to the land of Judah only few in number,^(D) and the whole remnant of Judah, the ones going to the land of Egypt to live there for a while, will know whose word stands, Mine or theirs!
