JER-43:1 And it came to pass, [that] when Jeremiah had made an
end of speaking unto all the people all the words of the LORD
their God, for which the LORD their God had sent him to them,
[even] all these words,
JER-43:2 Then spake Azariah the son of Hoshaiah, and Johanan the
son of Kareah, and all the proud men, saying unto Jeremiah, Thou
speakest falsely: the LORD our God hath not sent thee to say, Go
not into Egypt to sojourn there:
JER-43:3 But Baruch the son of Neriah setteth thee on against us,
for to deliver us into the hand of the Chaldeans, that they
might put us to death, and carry us away captives into Babylon.
JER-43:4 So Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of
the forces, and all the people, obeyed not the voice of the LORD,
to dwell in the land of Judah.
JER-43:5 But Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of
the forces, took all the remnant of Judah, that were returned
from all nations, whither they had been driven, to dwell in the
land of Judah;
JER-43:6 [Even] men, and women, and children, and the king's
daughters, and every person that Nebuzaradan the captain of the
guard had left with Gedaliah the son of Ahikam the son of
Shaphan, and Jeremiah the prophet, and Baruch the son of Neriah.
JER-43:7 So they came into the land of Egypt: for they obeyed
not the voice of the LORD: thus came they [even] to Tahpanhes.
JER-43:8 Then came the word of the LORD unto Jeremiah in
Tahpanhes, saying,
JER-43:9 Take great stones in thine hand, and hide them in the
clay in the brickkiln, which [is] at the entry of Pharaoh's
house in Tahpanhes, in the sight of the men of Judah;
JER-43:10 And say unto them, Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the
God of Israel; Behold, I will send and take Nebuchadrezzar the
king of Babylon, my servant, and will set his throne upon these
stones that I have hid; and he shall spread his royal pavilion
over them.
JER-43:11 And when he cometh, he shall smite the land of Egypt,
[and deliver] such [as are] for death to death; and such [as
are] for captivity to captivity; and such [as are] for the sword
to the sword.
JER-43:12 And I will kindle a fire in the houses of the gods of
Egypt; and he shall burn them, and carry them away captives: and
he shall array himself with the land of Egypt, as a shepherd
putteth on his garment; and he shall go forth from thence in
peace.
JER-43:13 He shall break also the images of Bethshemesh, that
[is] in the land of Egypt; and the houses of the gods of the
Egyptians shall he burn with fire.
