Jeremiah 42:17-19
Authorized (King James) Version
17 So shall it be with all the men that set their faces to go into Egypt to sojourn there; they shall die by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence: and none of them shall remain or escape from the evil that I will bring upon them. 18 For thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel; As mine anger and my fury hath been poured forth upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem; so shall my fury be poured forth upon you, when ye shall enter into Egypt: and ye shall be an execration, and an astonishment, and a curse, and a reproach; and ye shall see this place no more.
19 The Lord hath said concerning you, O ye remnant of Judah; Go ye not into Egypt: know certainly that I have admonished you this day.

Jeremiah 42:17-19
New International Version
17 Indeed, all who are determined to go to Egypt to settle there will die by the sword, famine and plague;(A) not one of them will survive or escape the disaster I will bring on them.’ 18 This is what the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says: ‘As my anger and wrath(B) have been poured out on those who lived in Jerusalem,(C) so will my wrath be poured out on you when you go to Egypt. You will be a curse[a](D) and an object of horror,(E) a curse[b] and an object of reproach;(F) you will never see this place again.’(G)
19 “Remnant(H) of Judah, the Lord has told you, ‘Do not go to Egypt.’(I) Be sure of this: I warn you today
