Jeremiah 44:12-14
International Standard Version
12 I’ll take the remnant of Judah that determined to go to the land of Egypt to settle there, and all of them[a] will come to an end in the land of Egypt. They’ll fall by the sword, and they’ll come to an end by famine. They’ll become a curse, an object of horror, ridicule, and scorn. 13 I’ll punish those who live in the land of Egypt just as I punished Jerusalem—with the sword, with famine, and with plague. 14 Of the remnant of Judah that came into the land of Egypt to settle there, no one will escape or survive to return to the land of Judah where they long to return and live.[b] Indeed, they won’t return, except for some[c] refugees.’”
