Jeremiah 42:20 (RSV) Revised Standard Version

1 Then all the commanders of the forces, and Johanan the son of Kareah and Azariah the son of Hoshaiah, and all the people from the least to the greatest, came near
2 and said to Jeremiah the prophet, "Let our supplication come before you, and pray to the LORD your God for us, for all this remnant (for we are left but a few of many, as your eyes see us),
3 that the LORD your God may show us the way we should go, and the thing that we should do."
4 Jeremiah the prophet said to them, "I have heard you; behold, I will pray to the LORD your God according to your request, and whatever the LORD answers you I will tell you; I will keep nothing back from you."
5 Then they said to Jeremiah, "May the LORD be a true and faithful witness against us if we do not act according to all the word with which the LORD your God sends you to us.
6 Whether it is good or evil, we will obey the voice of the LORD our God to whom we are sending you, that it may be well with us when we obey the voice of the LORD our God."
7 At the end of ten days the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah.
8 Then he summoned Johanan the son of Kareah and all the commanders of the forces who were with him, and all the people from the least to the greatest,
9 and said to them, "Thus says the LORD, the God of Israel, to whom you sent me to present your supplication before him:
10 If you will remain in this land, then I will build you up and not pull you down; I will plant you, and not pluck you up; for I repent of the evil which I did to you.
11 Do not fear the king of Babylon, of whom you are afraid; do not fear him, says the LORD, for I am with you, to save you and to deliver you from his hand.
12 I will grant you mercy, that he may have mercy on you and let you remain in your own land.
13 But if you say, `We will not remain in this land,' disobeying the voice of the LORD your God
14 and saying, `No, we will go to the land of Egypt, where we shall not see war, or hear the sound of the trumpet, or be hungry for bread, and we will dwell there,'
15 then hear the word of the LORD, O remnant of Judah. Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: If you set your faces to enter Egypt and go to live there,
16 then the sword which you fear shall overtake you there in the land of Egypt; and the famine of which you are afraid shall follow hard after you to Egypt; and there you shall die.
17 All the men who set their faces to go to Egypt to live there shall die by the sword, by famine, and by pestilence; they shall have no remnant or survivor from the evil which I will bring upon them.
18 "For thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: As my anger and my wrath were poured out on the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so my wrath will be poured out on you when you go to Egypt. You shall become an execration, a horror, a curse, and a taunt. You shall see this place no more.
19 The LORD has said to you, O remnant of Judah, `Do not go to Egypt.' Know for a certainty that I have warned you this day
20 that you have gone astray at the cost of your lives. For you sent me to the LORD your God, saying, `Pray for us to the LORD our God, and whatever the LORD our God says declare to us and we will do it.'
21 And I have this day declared it to you, but you have not obeyed the voice of the LORD your God in anything that he sent me to tell you.
22 Now therefore know for a certainty that you shall die by the sword, by famine, and by pestilence in the place where you desire to go to live."
1 Then all H3605 the captains H8269 of the forces, H2428 and Johanan H3110 the son H1121 of Kareah, H7143 and Jezaniah H3153 the son H1121 of Hoshaiah, H1955 and all H3605 the people H5971 from the least H4480 H6996 even unto H5704 the greatest, H1419 came near, H5066
2 And said H559 unto H413 Jeremiah H3414 the prophet, H5030 Let , we beseech thee, H4994 our supplication H8467 be accepted H5307 before H6440 thee , and pray H6419 for H1157 us unto H413 the LORD H3068 thy God, H430 even for H1157 all H3605 this H2063 remnant; H7611 ( for H3588 we are left H7604 but a few H4592 of many H4480 H7235 , as H834 thine eyes H5869 do behold H7200 us:)
3 That the LORD H3068 thy God H430 may show H5046 us H853 the way H1870 wherein H834 we may walk, H1980 and the thing H1697 that H834 we may do. H6213
4 Then Jeremiah H3414 the prophet H5030 said H559 unto H413 them , I have heard H8085 you ; behold, H2009 I will pray H6419 unto H413 the LORD H3068 your God H430 according to your words; H1697 and it shall come to pass, H1961 that whatsoever H3605 H834 thing H1697 the LORD H3068 shall answer H6030 you , I will declare H5046 it unto you ; I will keep nothing back H4513 H3808 H1697 from H4480 you.
5 Then they H1992 said H559 to H413 Jeremiah, H3414 The LORD H3068 be H1961 a true H571 and faithful H539 witness H5707 between us, if H518 we do H6213 not H3808 even H3651 according to all H3605 things H1697 for the which H834 the LORD H3068 thy God H430 shall send H7971 thee to H413 us.
6 Whether H518 it be good, H2896 or whether H518 it be evil, H7451 we will obey H8085 the voice H6963 of the LORD H3068 our God, H430 to whom H834 we H580 send H7971 thee; that H4616 H834 it may be well H3190 with us, when H3588 we obey H8085 the voice H6963 of the LORD H3068 our God. H430
7 And it came to pass H1961 after H4480 H7093 ten H6235 days, H3117 that the word H1697 of the LORD H3068 came H1961 unto H413 Jeremiah. H3414
8 Then called H7121 H413 he Johanan H3110 the son H1121 of Kareah, H7143 and all H3605 the captains H8269 of the forces H2428 which H834 were with H854 him , and all H3605 the people H5971 from the least H4480 H6996 even to H5704 the greatest, H1419
9 And said H559 unto H413 them, Thus H3541 saith H559 the LORD, H3068 the God H430 of Israel, H3478 unto H413 whom H834 ye sent H7971 me to present H5307 your supplication H8467 before H6440 him;
10 If H518 ye will still abide H7725 H3427 in this H2063 land, H776 then will I build H1129 you , and not H3808 pull you down, H2040 and I will plant H5193 you , and not H3808 pluck you up: H5428 for H3588 I repent H5162 me of H413 the evil H7451 that H834 I have done H6213 unto you.
11 Be not H408 afraid H3372 of H4480 H6440 the king H4428 of Babylon, H894 of whom H834 ye H859 are afraid H3372 H4480 ; H6440 be not H408 afraid H3372 of H4480 him, saith H5002 the LORD: H3068 for H3588 I H589 am with H854 you to save H3467 you , and to deliver H5337 you from his hand H4480. H3027
12 And I will show H5414 mercies H7356 unto you , that he may have mercy upon H7355 you , and cause you to return H7725 H853 to H413 your own land. H127
13 But if H518 ye H859 say, H559 We will not H3808 dwell H3427 in this H2063 land, H776 neither H1115 obey H8085 the voice H6963 of the LORD H3068 your God, H430
14 Saying H559 , No; H3808 but H3588 we will go H935 into the land H776 of Egypt, H4714 where H834 we shall see H7200 no H3808 war, H4421 nor H3808 hear H8085 the sound H6963 of the trumpet, H7782 nor H3808 have hunger H7456 of bread; H3899 and there H8033 will we dwell: H3427
15 And now H6258 therefore H3651 hear H8085 the word H1697 of the LORD, H3068 ye remnant H7611 of Judah; H3063 Thus H3541 saith H559 the LORD H3068 of hosts, H6635 the God H430 of Israel; H3478 If H518 ye H859 wholly set H7760 H7760 your faces H6440 to enter into H935 Egypt, H4714 and go H935 to sojourn H1481 there; H8033
16 Then it shall come to pass, H1961 that the sword, H2719 which H834 ye H859 feared H3373 H4480 , shall overtake H5381 you there H8033 in the land H776 of Egypt, H4714 and the famine, H7458 whereof H834 ye H859 were afraid H1672 H4480 , shall follow close H1692 after H310 you there H8033 in Egypt; H4714 and there H8033 ye shall die. H4191
17 So shall it be H1961 with all H3605 the men H376 that H834 set H7760 H853 their faces H6440 to go into H935 Egypt H4714 to sojourn H1481 there; H8033 they shall die H4191 by the sword, H2719 by the famine, H7458 and by the pestilence: H1698 and none H3808 of them shall H1961 remain H8300 or escape H6412 from H4480 H6440 the evil H7451 that H834 I H589 will bring H935 upon H5921 them.
18 For H3588 thus H3541 saith H559 the LORD H3068 of hosts, H6635 the God H430 of Israel; H3478 As H834 mine anger H639 and my fury H2534 hath been poured forth H5413 upon H5921 the inhabitants H3427 of Jerusalem; H3389 so H3651 shall my fury H2534 be poured forth H5413 upon H5921 you , when ye shall H1961 enter into H935 Egypt: H4714 and ye shall be an execration, H423 and an astonishment, H8047 and a curse, H7045 and a reproach; H2781 and ye shall see H7200 H853 this H2088 place H4725 no H3808 more. H5750
19 The LORD H3068 hath said H1696 concerning H5921 you , O ye remnant H7611 of Judah; H3063 Go H935 ye not H408 into Egypt: H4714 know certainly H3045 H3045 that H3588 I have admonished H5749 you this day. H3117
20 For H3588 ye dissembled H8582 in your hearts, H5315 when H3588 ye H859 sent H7971 me unto H413 the LORD H3068 your God, H430 saying, H559 Pray H6419 for H1157 us unto H413 the LORD H3068 our God; H430 and according unto all H3605 that H834 the LORD H3068 our God H430 shall say, H559 so H3651 declare H5046 unto us , and we will do H6213 it .
21 And now I have this day H3117 declared H5046 it to you ; but ye have not H3808 obeyed H8085 the voice H6963 of the LORD H3068 your God, H430 nor any H3605 thing for the which H834 he hath sent H7971 me unto H413 you.
22 Now H6258 therefore know certainly H3045 H3045 that H3588 ye shall die H4191 by the sword, H2719 by the famine, H7458 and by the pestilence, H1698 in the place H4725 whither H834 H8033 ye desire H2654 to go H935 and to sojourn. H1481
