Jeremiah 46:16-18

New Catholic Bible

¹⁶ They stumbled and fell,
    and then they said to one another,
“Come, let us return to our own people
    and to the land of our birth,
    far from the swords of our oppressors.”
¹⁷ They gave this nickname to Pharaoh, the king of Egypt:
    “One who boasts but never succeeds.”
¹⁸ As I live, says the King,
    whose name is the Lord of hosts,
one is coming like Tabor^[a] among the mountains,
    like Carmel by the sea.
