⁷ And it came about that after ten days the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah. ⁸ And he sent for Johanan, the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces who were still with him, and all the people, from the least to the greatest, ⁹ And said to them, These are the words of the Lord, the God of Israel, to whom you sent me to put your request before him: ¹⁰ If you still go on living in the land, then I will go on building you up and not pulling you down, planting you and not uprooting you: for my purpose of doing evil to you has been changed. ¹¹ Have no fear of the king of Babylon, of whom you are now in fear; have no fear of him, says the Lord: for I am with you to keep you safe and to give you salvation from his hands. ¹² And I will have mercy on you, so that he may have mercy on you and let you go back to your land. ¹³ But if you say, We have no desire to go on living in this land; and do not give ear to the voice of the Lord your God, ¹⁴ Saying, No, but we will go into the land of Egypt, where we will not see war, or be hearing the sound of the horn, or be in need of food; there we will make our living-place; ¹⁵ Then give ear now to the word of the Lord, O you last of Judah: the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said, If your minds are fixed on going into Egypt and stopping there; ¹⁶ Then it will come about that the sword, which is the cause of your fear, will overtake you there in the land of Egypt, and need of food, which you are fearing, will go after you there in Egypt; and there death will come to you.
