Jeremiah 44:28-30
New Living Translation
28 Only a small number will escape death and return to Judah from Egypt. Then all those who came to Egypt will find out whose words are true—mine or theirs!
29 “‘And this is the proof I give you,’ says the Lord, ‘that all I have threatened will happen to you and that I will punish you here.’ 30 This is what the Lord says: ‘I will turn Pharaoh Hophra, king of Egypt, over to his enemies who want to kill him, just as I turned King Zedekiah of Judah over to King Nebuchadnezzar[a] of Babylon.’”

29 “‘This will be the sign(F) to you that I will punish(G) you in this place,’ declares the Lord, ‘so that you will know that my threats of harm against you will surely stand.’(H) 30 This is what the Lord says: ‘I am going to deliver Pharaoh(I) Hophra king of Egypt into the hands of his enemies who want to kill him, just as I gave Zedekiah(J) king of Judah into the hands of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, the enemy who wanted to kill him.’”(K)
