24 And Jeremiah said unto all the people, and to all the women, Hear ye the word of<br />

Jehovah, all Judah that are in the land of Egypt.<br />

25 Thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel, saying, Ye and your wives have both<br />

spoken with your mouths, and fulfilled with your hands, saying, We will certainly<br />

perform our vows which we have vowed, to burn incense to the queen of the heavens,<br />

and to pour out drinkofferings unto her. Ye will certainly establish your vows, and<br />

entirely perform your vows.<br />

26 Therefore hear ye the word of Jehovah, all Judah that dwell in the land of Egypt:<br />

Behold, I have sworn by my great name, saith Jehovah, that my name shall no more be<br />

named in the mouth of any man of Judah in all the land of Egypt, saying, [As] the Lord<br />

Jehovah liveth.<br />

27 Behold, I will watch over them for evil, and not for good; and all the men of Judah<br />

that are in the land of Egypt shall be consumed by the sword and by the famine, until<br />

there be an end of them.<br />

28 And they that escape the sword shall return out of the land of Egypt into the land of<br />

Judah, a very small company; and all the remnant of Judah, that have come into the<br />

land of Egypt to sojourn there, shall know whose word shall stand, mine or theirs.<br />

29 And this shall be the sign unto you, saith Jehovah, that I will punish you in this<br />

place, that ye may know that my words shall certainly stand against you for evil:<br />

30 thus saith Jehovah: Behold, I will give Pharaoh-Hophra king of Egypt into the hand of<br />

his enemies, and into the hand of them that seek his life; as I gave Zedekiah king of<br />

Judah into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, his enemy, and that sought his<br />

life.<br />

Chapter 45<br />

1 The word that Jeremiah the prophet spoke to Baruch the son of Nerijah, when he<br />

wrote these words in a book at the mouth of Jeremiah, in the fourth year of Jehoiakim<br />

the son of Josiah, the king of Judah, saying,<br />

2 Thus sayeth Jehovah, the God of Israel, concerning thee, Baruch:<br />

3 Thou didst say, Woe unto me! for Jehovah hath added grief to my sorrow; I am weary<br />

with my sighing, and I find no rest.<br />

4 Thus shalt thou say unto him, Thus saith Jehovah: Behold, what I have built do I<br />

overthrow, and what I have planted I pluck up, even this whole land.<br />

5 And seekest thou great things for thyself? seek [them] not; for behold, I will bring evil<br />

upon all flesh, saith Jehovah; but thy life will I give unto thee for a prey in all places<br />

whither thou shalt go.<br />

Chapter 46<br />

1 The word of Jehovah that came to Jeremiah the prophet concerning the nations.<br />

2 Of Egypt: concerning the army of Pharaoh-Necho king of Egypt, which was by the river<br />

Euphrates at Carchemish, which Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon smote in the fourth<br />

year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, the king of Judah.<br />

3 Make ready buckler and shield, and draw near to battle!<br />

4 Harness the horses, and mount ye horsemen, and stand forth with helmets; polish the<br />

spears, put on the coats of mail!<br />

5 Why do I see them dismayed, turned away back? And their mighty ones are beaten<br />

down, and take to flight, and look not back? Terror [is] on every side, saith Jehovah.<br />

6 Let not the swift flee away, neither let the mighty man escape! -- Toward the north,<br />

hard by the river Euphrates, they have stumbled and fallen.<br />

7 Who is this [that] riseth up as the Nile, whose waters toss themselves like the rivers?<br />

8 It is Egypt that riseth up as the Nile, and [his] waters toss themselves like the rivers;
