          DASV: Jeremiah 43    

1 When Jeremiah finished speaking to all the people all the
words of the LORD their God, with which the LORD their God
had sent him to them,
2 then Azariah the son of Hoshaiah, and Johanan the son of
Kareah, and all the proud men said to Jeremiah, "You are
lying. The LORD our God has not sent you to say, 'You should
not go to Egypt to settle there.'
3 It is Baruch the son of Neriah who is inciting you against
us, to deliver us into the hand of the Chaldeans, that they
may put us to death and deport us to Babylon."
4 So Johanan the son of Kareah, all the military commanders,
and all the people, refused to obey the voice of the LORD
to stay in the land of Judah.
5 But Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the military
commanders, took with them all the remnant of Judah who
had returned to settle in the land of Judah from all
the nations where they had been driven,
6 including the men, women, children, the king's daughters,
and every person who Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard
had left with Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, the son of
Shaphan, along with Jeremiah the prophet and Baruch
the son of Neriah.
7 They went to the land of Egypt, for they refused to
obey the voice of the LORD and so they came to Tahpanhes.

8 Then the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah in Tahpanhes,
saying,
9 "Take great stones in your hand and bury them in mortar
in the pavement, which is at the entry of Pharaoh's
house in Tahpanhes, in the sight of the people of Judah.
10 Say to them, 'This is what the LORD of hosts, the
God of Israel, says: Look, I will send and take
Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, my servant, and
will set his throne on these stones that I have hid.
He will spread his royal canopy over them.
11 He will come and attack the land of Egypt. Those who
are destined for death will die. Those who are destined
for captivity will go into captivity. Those who are
destined for the sword will die by the sword.
12 I will kindle a fire in the houses of the gods of
Egypt; he will burn them, and carry them away captive.
He will pick Egypt as clean as a shepherd picking fleas
from his cloak. He will leave there safely.
13 He will also break the pillars of house of the sun in
the land of Egypt and the houses of the gods of Egypt
he will burn down.'"
