Jeremiah 46:16-18

Complete Jewish Bible

Then they said, “Let’s get up,
let’s return to our own people,
back to the land where we were born,
away from the sword that destroys.”
¹⁷ They cried there, “Pharaoh king of Egypt makes noise,
but he lets the right time [for action] slip by.”

¹⁸ “As I live,” says the king,
whose name is Adonai-Tzva’ot,
“when he comes, he will be [as mighty]
as Tavor among the mountains,
as Karmel next to the sea.
