Jeremiah 42:14-16
Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition
14 Saying: No, but we will go into the land of Egypt: where we shall see no war, nor hear the sound of the trumpet, nor suffer hunger: and there we will dwell.
15 For this now hear the word of the Lord, ye remnant of Juda: Thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: If you set your faces to go into Egypt, and enter in to dwell there:
16 The sword which you fear, shall overtake you there in the land of Egypt: and the famine, whereof you are afraid, shall cleave to you in Egypt, and there you shall die.

Jeremiah 42:14-16
New International Version
14 and if you say, ‘No, we will go and live in Egypt,(A) where we will not see war or hear the trumpet(B) or be hungry for bread,’(C) 15 then hear the word of the Lord,(D) you remnant of Judah. This is what the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says: ‘If you are determined to go to Egypt and you do go to settle there, 16 then the sword(E) you fear(F) will overtake you there, and the famine(G) you dread will follow you into Egypt, and there you will die.(H)
