For thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; As mine anger and my fury hath been poured forth upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem; so shall my fury be poured forth upon you, when ye shall enter into Egypt: and ye shall be an execration, and an astonishment, and a curse, and a reproach; and ye shall see this place no more.
Jer ovako govori Jahve nad Vojskama, Bog Izraelov: 'Kao što se srdžba moja i bijes moj oboriše na Jeruzalemce, tako će se gnjev moj izliti i na vas ako pođete u Egipat: postat ćete prokletstvo, užas, kletva i poruga, a ovoga mjesta nikad više nećete ugledati.'
