Vous, les restes de Juda, l'Eternel a parlé contre vous : n'entrez point en Egypte, vous sentirez certainement que je vous en ai sommés aujourd'hui.
L'Éternel vous a dit, reste de Juda: N'allez pas en Égypte. Sachez certainement que je vous ai avertis aujourd'hui;
Restes de Juda, l'Eternel vous dit: N'allez pas en Egypte! sachez que je vous le défends aujourd'hui.
Bible Verse Review
from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge
Go: God knew, that such was their miserable propensity to idolatry, that they would adopt the idolatrous worship of Egypt. Add to which, their going thither for protection was in effect refusing to submit to the king of Babylon, to whom God had decreed the rule of Judah and the neighbouring kingdoms. Deuteronomy 17:16, Isaiah 30:1-7, Isaiah 31:1-3, Ezekiel 17:15
know: Jeremiah 38:21, Ezekiel 3:21, Acts 20:26, Acts 20:27
admonished you: Heb. testified against you, Deuteronomy 31:21, 2 Chronicles 24:19, Nehemiah 9:26, Nehemiah 9:29, Nehemiah 9:30, Acts 2:40, Ephesians 4:17, 1 Thessalonians 4:6
Reciprocal: 2 Kings 17:13 - testified Nehemiah 13:15 - I testified Isaiah 21:12 - if Jeremiah 41:17 - to go Ezekiel 3:19 - if thou Acts 4:10 - known
Gill's Notes on the Bible
The Lord hath said concerning you, O ye remnant of Judah,.... Or, "unto you" w; by the mouth of the prophet; or, "against you" x; that which was contrary to their inclination and will, as follows:
go ye not into Egypt: this was the express command of God:
know certainly that I have admonished you this day; not to go into Egypt: or, "have testified unto you" y; the will of God concerning this matter; and therefore they could not plead ignorance.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The request made in Jeremiah 42:3 has been fulfilled: Yahweh has spoken. The prophet now adds these four verses as a sort of epilogue, in which he urges upon them the several points of the divine message. In the ten days which had intervened between the request and the answer Jeremiah had become aware that neither princes nor people were prepared to obey unless the answer was in accordance with their own wishes. He does therefore his best to convince them, but as usual it was his lot to speak the truth to willful men, and gain no hearing.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Jeremiah 42:19. Go ye not into Egypt — Why? Because God knew, such was their miserable propensity to idolatry, that they would there adopt the worship of the country, and serve idols.
