43:1 And it came to pass, that when Jeremiah
had made an end of speaking unto all the people all the words of the LORD their God, for
which the LORD their God had sent him to them, even all these words,
43:2 Then spake Azariah the son of Hoshaiah, and Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the
proud men, saying unto Jeremiah, Thou speakest falsely: the LORD our God hath not sent
thee to say, Go not into Egypt to sojourn there:
43:3 But Baruch the son of Neriah setteth thee
on against us, for to deliver us into the hand of the Chaldeans, that they might put us to
death, and carry us away captives into Babylon.
43:4 So Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces, and all the people,
obeyed not the voice of the LORD, to dwell in the land of Judah.
43:5 But Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces, took all the
remnant of Judah, that were returned from all nations, whither they had been driven, to
dwell in the land of Judah;
43:6 Even men, and women, and children, and the king's daughters, and every person that
Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard had left with Gedaliah the son of Ahikam the son of
Shaphan, and Jeremiah the prophet, and Baruch the son of Neriah.
43:7 So they came into the land of Egypt: for they obeyed not the voice of the LORD: thus
came they even to Tahpanhes.
43:8 Then came the word of the LORD unto Jeremiah in Tahpanhes, saying,
43:9 Take great stones in thine hand, and hide them in the clay in the brickkiln, which is at the entry of Pharaoh's house in Tahpanhes, in the sight of the men of Judah;
43:10 And say unto them, Thus saith the LORD
of hosts, the God of Israel; Behold, I will send and take Nebuchadrezzar the king of
Babylon, my servant, and will set his throne upon these stones that I have hid; and he
shall spread his royal pavilion over them.
43:11 And when he cometh, he shall smite the land of Egypt, and deliver such as are for
death to death; and such as are for captivity to captivity; and such as are for the sword
to the sword.
43:12 And I will kindle a fire in the houses of the gods of Egypt; and he shall burn them,
and carry them away captives: and he shall array himself with the land of Egypt, as a
shepherd putteth on his garment; and he shall go forth from thence in peace.
43:13 He shall break also the images of Bethshemesh, that is in the land of Egypt; and the
houses of the gods of the Egyptians shall he burn with fire.
