Jeremiah 43:1-3
International Standard Version
The Refugees Reject the Lord’s Instruction
43 When Jeremiah had finished telling all the people all the words that the Lord their God had sent him to tell them—that is, all these words— 2 Hoshaiah’s son Azariah, Kareah’s son Johanan, and all the arrogant men told Jeremiah, “You’re lying! The Lord our God didn’t send you to say, ‘Don’t go to Egypt to settle there.’ 3 Indeed, Neriah’s son Baruch is inciting you against us in order to give us into the hands of the Chaldeans, to kill us, or to take us into exile to Babylon.”

Lexham English Bible
43 And then,[a] when Jeremiah had finished speaking to all the people all the words of Yahweh their God, for which Yahweh their God had sent him to them with all these words, 2 Azariah the son of Hoshaiah, and Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the insolent men spoke,[b] saying to Jeremiah, “You are telling a lie! Yahweh our God did not send you, saying,[c] ‘You must not go to Egypt to dwell as aliens there.’ 3 But Baruch the son of Neriah is inciting you against us in order to give us into the hand of the Chaldeans, to kill us and to deport us to Babylon.”
