Jeremiah 46:17-19

Easy-to-Read Version

¹⁷ In their homelands, those soldiers will say,
    ‘Pharaoh, the king of Egypt, is only a lot of noise.
    His time of glory is over.’”
¹⁸ This message is from the King.
    The King is the Lord All-Powerful.
“I promise, as surely as I live, a powerful leader will come.
    He will be like Mount Tabor or Mount Carmel among smaller mountains.
¹⁹ People of Egypt, pack your things.
    Get ready for captivity,
because Memphis will be a ruined, empty land.
    Those cities will be destroyed,
    and no one will live there.
