Jeremiah 42:17-19
New King James Version
17 So shall it be with all the men who set their faces to go to Egypt to dwell there. They shall die by the sword, by famine, and by pestilence. And (A)none of them shall remain or escape from the disaster that I will bring upon them.’
18 “For thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: ‘As My anger and My fury have been (B)poured out on the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so will My fury be poured out on you when you enter Egypt. And (C)you shall be an oath, an astonishment, a curse, and a reproach; and you shall see this place no more.’
19 “The Lord has said concerning you, O remnant of Judah, (D)‘Do not go to Egypt!’ Know certainly that I have [a]admonished you this day.
