11 ♥ 📝 Therefore thus saith^H559 Jehovah^H3068 of hosts,^H6635 the God^H430 of Israel:^H3478 Behold, I will set^H7760 my face^H6440 against you for evil,^H7451 even to cut off^H3772 all Judah.^H3063

12 ♥ 📝 And I will take^H3947 the remnant^H7611 of Judah,^H3063 that have set^H7760 their faces^H6440 to go^H935 into the land^H776 of Egypt^H4714 to sojourn^H1481 there, and they shall all be consumed;^H8552 in the land^H776 of Egypt^H4714 shall they fall;^H5307 they shall be consumed^H8552 by the sword^H2719 and by the famine;^H7458 they shall die,^H4191 from the least^H6996 even unto the greatest,^H1419 by the sword^H2719 and by the famine;^H7458 and they shall be an execration,^H423 [and] an astonishment,^H8047 and a curse,^H7045 and a reproach.^H2781

13 ♥ 📝 For I will punish^H6485 them that dwell^H3427 in the land^H776 of Egypt,^H4714 as I have punished^H6485 Jerusalem,^H3389 by the sword,^H2719 by the famine,^H7458 and by the pestilence;^H1698

14 ♥ 📝 so that none of the remnant^H7611 of Judah,^H3063 that are gone^H935 into the land^H776 of Egypt^H4714 to sojourn^H1481 there, shall escape^H6412 or be left,^H8300 to return^H7725 into the land^H776 of Judah,^H3063 to which they have^H5375 a desire^H5315 to return^H7725 to dwell^H3427 there: for none shall return^H7725 save such as shall escape.^H6405

15 ♥ 📝 Then all the men^H582 who knew^H3045 that their wives^H802 burned incense^H6999 unto other^H312 gods,^H430 and all the women^H802 that stood by,^H5975 a great^H1419 assembly,^H6951 even all the people^H5971 that dwelt^H3427 in the land^H776 of Egypt,^H4714 in Pathros,^H6624 answered^H6030 Jeremiah,^H3414 saying,^H559

16 ♥ 📝 As for the word^H1697 that thou hast spoken^H1696 unto us in the name^H8034 of Jehovah,^H3068 we will not hearken^H8085 unto thee.

18 ♥ 📝 But since we left off^H2308 burning incense^H6999 to the queen^H4446 of heaven,^H8064 and pouring out^H5258 drink-offerings^H5262 unto her, we have wanted^H2637 all things, and have been consumed^H8552 by the sword^H2719 and by the famine.^H7458

19 ♥ 📝 And when we burned incense^H6999 to the queen^H4446 of heaven,^H8064 and poured out^H5258 drink-offerings^H5262 unto her, did we make^H6213 her cakes^H3561 to worship^H6087 her, and pour out^H5258 drink-offerings^H5262 unto her, without^H1107 our husbands?^H582

22 ♥ 📝 so that Jehovah^H3068 could^H3201 not longer bear,^H5375 because^H6440 of the evil^H7455 of your doings,^H4611 and because^H6440 of the abominations^H8441 which ye have committed;^H6213 therefore is your land^H776 become a desolation,^H2723 and an astonishment,^H8047 and a curse,^H7045 without inhabitant,^H3427 as it is this day.^H3117

23 ♥ 📝 Because^H6440 ye have burned incense,^H6999 and because ye have sinned^H2398 against Jehovah,^H3068 and have not obeyed^H8085 the voice^H6963 of Jehovah,^H3068 nor walked^H1980 in his law,^H8451 nor in his statutes,^H2708 nor in his testimonies;^H5715 therefore this evil^H7451 is happened^H7122 unto you, as it is this day.^H3117

26 ♥ 📝 Therefore hear^H8085 ye the word^H1697 of Jehovah,^H3068 all Judah^H3063 that dwell^H3427 in the land^H776 of Egypt:^H4714 Behold, I have sworn^H7650 by my great^H1419 name,^H8034 saith^H559 Jehovah,^H3068 that my name^H8034 shall no more be named^H7121 in the mouth^H6310 of any man^H376 of Judah^H3063 in all the land^H776 of Egypt,^H4714 saying,^H559 As the Lord^H136 Jehovah^H3069 liveth.^H2416

27 ♥ 📝 Behold, I watch^H8245 over them for evil,^H7451 and not for good;^H2896 and all the men^H376 of Judah^H3063 that are in the land^H776 of Egypt^H4714 shall be consumed^H8552 by the sword^H2719 and by the famine,^H7458 until there be an end^H3615 of them.

29 ♥ 📝 And this shall be the sign^H226 unto you, saith^H5002 Jehovah,^H3068 that I will punish^H6485 you in this place,^H4725 that ye may know^H3045 that my words^H1697 shall surely^H6965 stand^H6965 against you for evil:^H7451

30 ♥ 📝 Thus saith^H559 Jehovah,^H3068 Behold, I will give^H5414 Pharaoh Hophra^H6548 king^H4428 of Egypt^H4714 into the hand^H3027 of his enemies,^H341 and into the hand^H3027 of them that seek^H1245 his life;^H5315 as I gave^H5414 Zedekiah^H6667 king^H4428 of Judah^H3063 into the hand^H3027 of Nebuchadrezzar^H5019 king^H4428 of Babylon,^H894 who was his enemy,^H341 and sought^H1245 his life.^H5315
