Jeremiah 42:19-22
Legacy Standard Bible
19 Yahweh has spoken to you, O remnant of Judah, “Do not (A)go into Egypt!” You should clearly (B)know that today I have (C)testified against you. 20 For you have only [a](D)led yourselves astray; for it is you who sent me to Yahweh your God, saying, “Pray for us to Yahweh our God; and according to all that Yahweh our God says, tell us so, and we will do it.” 21 So I have (E)told you today, but you have (F)not listened to the voice of Yahweh your God, even according to all that He has sent me to tell you. 22 So now, you should clearly know that you will (G)die by the sword, by famine, and by pestilence, in the (H)place where you desire to go to sojourn.

Jeremiah 42:19-22
Revised Standard Version
19 The Lord has said to you, O remnant of Judah, ‘Do not go to Egypt.’ Know for a certainty that I have warned you this day 20 that you have gone astray at the cost of your lives. For you sent me to the Lord your God, saying, ‘Pray for us to the Lord our God, and 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 that he sent me to tell you. 22 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.”
