Jeremiah 42:16-18
Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition
16 The sword which you fear, shall overtake you there in the land of Egypt: and the famine, whereof you are afraid, shall cleave to you in Egypt, and there you shall die.
17 And all the men that set their faces to go into Egypt, to dwell there, shall die by the sword, and by famine, and by pestilence: none of them shall remain, nor escape from the face of the evil that I will bring upon them.
18 For thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: As my anger and my indignation hath been kindled against the inhabitants of Jerusalem: so shall my indignation be kindled against you, when you shall enter into Egypt, and you shall be an execration, and an astonishment, and a curse, and a reproach: and you shall see this place no more.

Jeremiah 42:16-18
New International Version
16 then the sword(A) you fear(B) will overtake you there, and the famine(C) you dread will follow you into Egypt, and there you will die.(D) 17 Indeed, all who are determined to go to Egypt to settle there will die by the sword, famine and plague;(E) not one of them will survive or escape the disaster I will bring on them.’ 18 This is what the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says: ‘As my anger and wrath(F) have been poured out on those who lived in Jerusalem,(G) so will my wrath be poured out on you when you go to Egypt. You will be a curse[a](H) and an object of horror,(I) a curse[b] and an object of reproach;(J) you will never see this place again.’(K)
