¹⁵ then hear the word of the Lord, O remnant of Judah. Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: ^(A)If you set your faces to enter Egypt ^(B)and go to live there,

¹² I will take the remnant of Judah who have ^(A)set their faces to come to the land of Egypt to live, and they shall all be consumed. ^(B)In the land of Egypt they shall fall; by the sword and by famine ^(C)they shall be consumed. ^(D)From the least to the greatest, they shall die by the sword and by famine, ^(E)and they shall become an oath, a horror, ^(F)a curse, and a taunt. ^13 (G)I will punish those who dwell in the land of Egypt, as I have punished Jerusalem, with the sword, with famine, and with pestilence, ^14 (H)so that none of the remnant of Judah who have come to live in the land of Egypt shall escape or survive ^(I)or return to the land of Judah, to which they desire to return to dwell there. For they shall not return, ^(J)except some fugitives.”

¹⁶ Only he must not acquire many ^(A)horses for himself or cause the people ^(B)to return to Egypt in order to acquire many horses, since the Lord has said to you, ^(C)‘You shall never return that way again.’

¹⁷ All the men who set their faces to go to Egypt to live there shall die by the sword, by famine, and by pestilence. They shall have ^(A)no remnant or survivor from the disaster that I will bring upon them.

⁵¹ When the days drew near for ^(A)him to be taken up, ^(B)he set his face ^(C)to go to Jerusalem.

¹⁷ He shall ^(A)set his face to come with the strength of his whole kingdom, and he shall bring terms of an agreement and perform them. He shall give him the daughter of women to destroy the kingdom,^[a] but it shall not stand or be to his advantage.

²¹ He fled with all that he had and arose and crossed the ^(A)Euphrates,^[a] and ^(B)set his face toward the hill country of Gilead.
