Jeremiah 42:19-22
Christian Standard Bible
19 The Lord has spoken concerning you, remnant of Judah: ‘Don’t go to Egypt.’ Know for certain that I have warned you today!(A) 20 You have gone astray at the cost of your lives[a] because you are the ones who sent me to the Lord your God, saying, ‘Pray to the Lord our God on our behalf, and as for all that the Lord our God says, tell it to us, and we’ll act accordingly.’ 21 For I have told you today, but you have not obeyed the Lord your God in everything he has sent me to tell you. 22 Now therefore, know for certain that by the sword, famine, and plague you will die in the place where you desired to go to stay for a while.”

19 The Lord has said to you, O remnant of Judah, (A)‘Do not go to Egypt.’ (B)Know for a certainty that I have warned you this day 20 that you have gone astray at the cost of your lives. (C)For you sent me to the Lord your God, saying, (D)‘Pray for us to the Lord our God, and (E)whatever the Lord our God says, declare to us and we will do it.’ 21 And I have this day declared it to you, but you have not obeyed the voice of the Lord your God in anything (F)that he sent me to tell you. 22 (G)Now therefore know for a certainty that you shall die by the sword, by famine, and by pestilence in the place where you desire to go to live.”
