Jeremiah 42 1 Then all the captains of the forces , and Johanan the son of Kareah , and Jezaniah the son of Hoshaiah , and all the people from the least even unto the greatest , came near , Copy 2 And said unto Jeremiah the prophet , Let, we beseech thee, our supplication be accepted before thee, and pray for us unto the Lord thy God , even for all this remnant ; ( for we are left but a few of many , as thine eyes do behold us:) Copy 3 That the Lord thy God may shew us the way wherein we may walk , and the thing that we may do . Copy 4 Then Jeremiah the prophet said unto them, I have heard you; behold, I will pray unto the Lord your God according to your words ; and it shall come to pass, that whatsoever thing the Lord shall answer you, I will declare it unto you; I will keep nothing back from you. Copy 5 Then they said to Jeremiah , The Lord be a true and faithful witness between us, if we do not even according to all things for the which the Lord thy God shall send thee to us. Copy 6 Whether it be good , or whether it be evil , we will obey the voice of the Lord our God , to whom we send thee; that it may be well with us, when we obey the voice of the Lord our God . Copy 7 And it came to pass after ten days , that the word of the Lord came unto Jeremiah . Copy 8 Then called he Johanan the son of Kareah , and all the captains of the forces which were with him, and all the people from the least even to the greatest , Copy 9 And said unto them, Thus saith the Lord , the God of Israel , unto whom ye sent me to present your supplication before him; Copy 10 If ye will still abide in this land , then will I build you, and not pull you down , and I will plant you, and not pluck you up : for I repent me of the evil that I have done unto you. Copy 11 Be not afraid of the king of Babylon , of whom ye are afraid ; be not afraid of him, saith the Lord : for I am with you to save you, and to deliver you from his hand . Copy 12 And I will shew mercies unto you, that he may have mercy upon you, and cause you to return to your own land . Copy 13 But if ye say , We will not dwell in this land , neither obey the voice of the Lord your God , Copy 14 Saying , No; but we will go into the land of Egypt , where we shall see no war , nor hear the sound of the trumpet , nor have hunger of bread ; and there will we dwell : Copy 15 And now therefore hear the word of the Lord , ye remnant of Judah ; Thus saith the Lord of hosts , the God of Israel ; If ye wholly set your faces to enter into Egypt , and go to sojourn there; Copy 16 Then it shall come to pass, that the sword , which ye feared , shall overtake you there in the land of Egypt , and the famine , whereof ye were afraid , shall follow close after you there in Egypt ; and there ye shall die . Copy 17 So shall it be with all the men that set their faces to go into Egypt to sojourn there; they shall die by the sword , by the famine , and by the pestilence : and none of them shall remain or escape from the evil that I will bring upon them. Copy 18 For thus saith the Lord of hosts , the God of Israel ; As mine anger and my fury hath been poured forth upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem ; so shall my fury be poured forth upon you, when ye shall enter into Egypt : and ye shall be an execration , and an astonishment , and a curse , and a reproach ; and ye shall see this place no more. Copy 19 The Lord hath said concerning you, O ye remnant of Judah ; Go ye not into Egypt : know certainly that I have admonished you this day . Copy 20 For ye dissembled in your hearts , when ye sent me unto the Lord your God , saying , Pray for us unto the Lord our God ; and according unto all that the Lord our God shall say , so declare unto us, and we will do it. Copy 21 And now I have this day declared it to you; but ye have not obeyed the voice of the Lord your God , nor any thing for the which he hath sent me unto you. Copy 22 Now therefore know certainly that ye shall die by the sword , by the famine , and by the pestilence , in the place whither ye desire to go and to sojourn . Copy
