Jeremiah 46:16-18

Common English Bible

¹⁶ He’s tripped them up;
    they fall over each other and say,
    “Let’s get out of here
        and go home to our people,
        where we were born,
        far away from the oppressor’s sword.”^[a]
17 There they call Pharaoh, Egypt’s king,
    Loudmouth—Nothing But Hot Air!
¹⁸ As I live, declares the king,
    whose name is the Lord of heavenly forces,
one is coming
    just as surely as Tabor is in the mountains
    and Carmel is by the sea.^[b]
