Taken to Egypt, Jeremiah Warns of Judgment

43When Jeremiah finished speaking to all the people all these words of the LORD their God, with which the LORD their God had sent him to them,H3414H3615H1696H5971H1697H3068H430H3068H430H7971H16972Azariah son of Hoshaiah and Johanan son of Kareah and all the other insolent men said to Jeremiah, "You are telling a lie. The LORD our God did not send you to say, 'Do not go to Egypt to settle there';H559H5838H1121H1955H3110H1121H7143H2086H582H559H3414H1696H8267H3068H430H7971H559H935H4714H14813but Baruch son of Neriah is inciting you against us, to hand us over to the Chaldeans, in order that they may kill us or take us into exile in Babylon."H1263H1121H5374H5496H4616H5414H3027H3778H4191H1540H8944So Johanan son of Kareah and all the commanders of the forces and all the people did not obey the voice of the LORD, to stay in the land of Judah.H3110H1121H7143H8269H2428H5971H8085H6963H3068H3427H776H30635But Johanan son of Kareah and all the commanders of the forces took all the remnant of Judah who had returned to settle in the land of Judah from all the nations to which they had been driven—H3110H1121H7143H8269H2428H3947H7611H3063H7725H1471H5080H1481H776H30636the men, the women, the children, the princesses, and everyone whom Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard had left with Gedaliah son of Ahikam son of Shaphan; also the prophet Jeremiah and Baruch son of Neriah.H1397H802H2945H4428H1323H5315H5018H7227H2876H3240H1436H1121H296H1121H8227H3414H5030H1263H1121H53747And they came into the land of Egypt, for they did not obey the voice of the LORD. And they arrived at Tahpanhes.H935H776H4714H8085H6963H3068H935H84718Then the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah in Tahpanhes:H1697H3068H3414H8471H5599Take some large stones in your hands, and bury them in the clay pavement that is at the entrance to Pharaoh's palace in Tahpanhes. Let the Judeans see you do it,H3947H1419H68H3027H2934H4423H4404H6607H6547H1004H8471H5869H582H306410and say to them, Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: I am going to send and take my servant King Nebuchadrezzar of Babylon, and he will set his throne above these stones that I have buried, and he will spread his royal canopy over them.H559H559H3068H6635H430H3478H7971H3947H5019H4428H894H5650H7760H3678H4605H68H2934H5186H823711He shall come and ravage the land of Egypt, giving those who are destined for pestilence, to pestilence, and those who are destined for captivity, to captivity, and those who are destined for the sword, to the sword.H935H5221H776H4714H4194H4194H7628H7628H2719H271912He shall kindle a fire in the temples of the gods of Egypt; and he shall burn them and carry them away captive; and he shall pick clean the land of Egypt, as a shepherd picks his cloak clean of vermin; and he shall depart from there safely.H3341H784H1004H430H4714H8313H7617H5844H776H4714H7462H5844H899H3318H796513He shall break the obelisks of Heliopolis, which is in the land of Egypt; and the temples of the gods of Egypt he shall burn with fire.H7665H4676H1053H776H4714H1004H430H4714H8313H784
