Jeremiah 42:1 (ERVEN) Easy to Read - English

1 While they were at Geruth Kimham, Johanan son of Kareah and Jezaniah son of Hoshaiah went to Jeremiah the prophet. All the army officers went with Johanan and Jezaniah. All the people, from the least important to the most important, went to Jeremiah.
2 They said to him, "Jeremiah, please listen to what we ask. Pray to the Lord your God for all those who are survivors from the family of Judah. Jeremiah, you can see that there are not many of us left. At one time there were many of us.
3 Jeremiah, pray that the Lord your God will tell us where we should go and what we should do."
4 Then Jeremiah the prophet answered, "I understand what you want me to do. I will pray to the Lord your God, as you asked me to do. I will tell you everything he says. I will not hide anything from you."
5 Then the people said to Jeremiah, "If we don't do everything the Lord your God tells us, then we hope the Lord will be a true and faithful witness against us. We know he will send you to tell us what to do.
6 It doesn't matter if we like the message or if we don't like the message. We will obey the Lord our God. We are sending you to the Lord for a message from him. We will obey what he says. Then good things will happen to us. Yes, we will obey the Lord our God."
7 At the end of ten days, the message from the Lord came to Jeremiah.
8 Then Jeremiah called together Johanan son of Kareah and the army officers who were with him. He also called all the other people together, from the least important to the most important.
9 Then Jeremiah said to them, "Here is what the Lord, the God of the people of Israel, says. You sent me to him, and I asked him what you told me to ask. This is what he says:
10 'If you will stay in Judah, I will make you strong�I will not destroy you. I will plant you, and I will not pull you up. I will do this because I am sad about the terrible things that I made happen to you.
11 Now you are afraid of the king of Babylon. But don't be afraid of him. Don't be afraid of the king of Babylon,' says the Lord, 'because I am with you. I will save you. I will rescue you. He will not get his hands on you.
12 I will be kind to you, and the king of Babylon will also treat you with mercy. He will bring you back to your land.'
13 But you might say, 'We will not stay in Judah.' If you say that, you will disobey the Lord your God.
14 And you might say, 'No, we will go and live in Egypt. We will not be bothered with war there. We will not hear the trumpets of war, and in Egypt we will not be hungry.'
15 If you say that, listen to the message of the Lord, you survivors from Judah. This is what the Lord All-Powerful, the God of the people of Israel, says: 'If you decide to go and live in Egypt, this will happen:
16 You are afraid of the sword of war, but it will defeat you there. And you are worried about hunger, but you will be hungry in Egypt. You will die there.
17 Everyone who decides to go live in Egypt will die by a sword, hunger, or terrible sickness. Not one person who goes to Egypt will survive. Not one of them will escape the terrible things that I will bring to them.'
18 "This is what the Lord All-Powerful, the God of the people of Israel, says: 'I showed my anger against Jerusalem. I punished the people who lived there. In the same way I will show my anger against everyone who goes to Egypt. People will use you as an example when they ask for bad things to happen to other people. You will become like a curse word. People will be ashamed of you, and they will insult you. And you will never see Judah again.'
19 "Survivors of Judah, the Lord told you: 'Don't go to Egypt.' I warn you right now,
20 you are making a mistake that will cause your deaths. You sent me to the Lord your God. You said to me, 'Pray to the Lord our God for us. Tell us everything the Lord our God says to do. We will obey him.'
21 So today, I have told you the message from the Lord. But you have not obeyed the Lord your God. You have not done all that he sent me to tell you to do.
22 So now be sure you understand this: You want to go live in Egypt. But these things will happen to you in Egypt: You will die by a sword, or hunger, or terrible sickness."
1 Then all H3605 the captains H8269 of the forces, H2428 and Johanan H3110 the son H1121 of Kareah, H7143 and Jezaniah H3153 the son H1121 of Hoshaiah, H1955 and all H3605 the people H5971 from the least H4480 H6996 even unto H5704 the greatest, H1419 came near, H5066
2 And said H559 unto H413 Jeremiah H3414 the prophet, H5030 Let , we beseech thee, H4994 our supplication H8467 be accepted H5307 before H6440 thee , and pray H6419 for H1157 us unto H413 the LORD H3068 thy God, H430 even for H1157 all H3605 this H2063 remnant; H7611 ( for H3588 we are left H7604 but a few H4592 of many H4480 H7235 , as H834 thine eyes H5869 do behold H7200 us:)
3 That the LORD H3068 thy God H430 may show H5046 us H853 the way H1870 wherein H834 we may walk, H1980 and the thing H1697 that H834 we may do. H6213
4 Then Jeremiah H3414 the prophet H5030 said H559 unto H413 them , I have heard H8085 you ; behold, H2009 I will pray H6419 unto H413 the LORD H3068 your God H430 according to your words; H1697 and it shall come to pass, H1961 that whatsoever H3605 H834 thing H1697 the LORD H3068 shall answer H6030 you , I will declare H5046 it unto you ; I will keep nothing back H4513 H3808 H1697 from H4480 you.
5 Then they H1992 said H559 to H413 Jeremiah, H3414 The LORD H3068 be H1961 a true H571 and faithful H539 witness H5707 between us, if H518 we do H6213 not H3808 even H3651 according to all H3605 things H1697 for the which H834 the LORD H3068 thy God H430 shall send H7971 thee to H413 us.
6 Whether H518 it be good, H2896 or whether H518 it be evil, H7451 we will obey H8085 the voice H6963 of the LORD H3068 our God, H430 to whom H834 we H580 send H7971 thee; that H4616 H834 it may be well H3190 with us, when H3588 we obey H8085 the voice H6963 of the LORD H3068 our God. H430
7 And it came to pass H1961 after H4480 H7093 ten H6235 days, H3117 that the word H1697 of the LORD H3068 came H1961 unto H413 Jeremiah. H3414
8 Then called H7121 H413 he Johanan H3110 the son H1121 of Kareah, H7143 and all H3605 the captains H8269 of the forces H2428 which H834 were with H854 him , and all H3605 the people H5971 from the least H4480 H6996 even to H5704 the greatest, H1419
9 And said H559 unto H413 them, Thus H3541 saith H559 the LORD, H3068 the God H430 of Israel, H3478 unto H413 whom H834 ye sent H7971 me to present H5307 your supplication H8467 before H6440 him;
10 If H518 ye will still abide H7725 H3427 in this H2063 land, H776 then will I build H1129 you , and not H3808 pull you down, H2040 and I will plant H5193 you , and not H3808 pluck you up: H5428 for H3588 I repent H5162 me of H413 the evil H7451 that H834 I have done H6213 unto you.
11 Be not H408 afraid H3372 of H4480 H6440 the king H4428 of Babylon, H894 of whom H834 ye H859 are afraid H3372 H4480 ; H6440 be not H408 afraid H3372 of H4480 him, saith H5002 the LORD: H3068 for H3588 I H589 am with H854 you to save H3467 you , and to deliver H5337 you from his hand H4480. H3027
12 And I will show H5414 mercies H7356 unto you , that he may have mercy upon H7355 you , and cause you to return H7725 H853 to H413 your own land. H127
13 But if H518 ye H859 say, H559 We will not H3808 dwell H3427 in this H2063 land, H776 neither H1115 obey H8085 the voice H6963 of the LORD H3068 your God, H430
14 Saying H559 , No; H3808 but H3588 we will go H935 into the land H776 of Egypt, H4714 where H834 we shall see H7200 no H3808 war, H4421 nor H3808 hear H8085 the sound H6963 of the trumpet, H7782 nor H3808 have hunger H7456 of bread; H3899 and there H8033 will we dwell: H3427
15 And now H6258 therefore H3651 hear H8085 the word H1697 of the LORD, H3068 ye remnant H7611 of Judah; H3063 Thus H3541 saith H559 the LORD H3068 of hosts, H6635 the God H430 of Israel; H3478 If H518 ye H859 wholly set H7760 H7760 your faces H6440 to enter into H935 Egypt, H4714 and go H935 to sojourn H1481 there; H8033
16 Then it shall come to pass, H1961 that the sword, H2719 which H834 ye H859 feared H3373 H4480 , shall overtake H5381 you there H8033 in the land H776 of Egypt, H4714 and the famine, H7458 whereof H834 ye H859 were afraid H1672 H4480 , shall follow close H1692 after H310 you there H8033 in Egypt; H4714 and there H8033 ye shall die. H4191
17 So shall it be H1961 with all H3605 the men H376 that H834 set H7760 H853 their faces H6440 to go into H935 Egypt H4714 to sojourn H1481 there; H8033 they shall die H4191 by the sword, H2719 by the famine, H7458 and by the pestilence: H1698 and none H3808 of them shall H1961 remain H8300 or escape H6412 from H4480 H6440 the evil H7451 that H834 I H589 will bring H935 upon H5921 them.
18 For H3588 thus H3541 saith H559 the LORD H3068 of hosts, H6635 the God H430 of Israel; H3478 As H834 mine anger H639 and my fury H2534 hath been poured forth H5413 upon H5921 the inhabitants H3427 of Jerusalem; H3389 so H3651 shall my fury H2534 be poured forth H5413 upon H5921 you , when ye shall H1961 enter into H935 Egypt: H4714 and ye shall be an execration, H423 and an astonishment, H8047 and a curse, H7045 and a reproach; H2781 and ye shall see H7200 H853 this H2088 place H4725 no H3808 more. H5750
19 The LORD H3068 hath said H1696 concerning H5921 you , O ye remnant H7611 of Judah; H3063 Go H935 ye not H408 into Egypt: H4714 know certainly H3045 H3045 that H3588 I have admonished H5749 you this day. H3117
20 For H3588 ye dissembled H8582 in your hearts, H5315 when H3588 ye H859 sent H7971 me unto H413 the LORD H3068 your God, H430 saying, H559 Pray H6419 for H1157 us unto H413 the LORD H3068 our God; H430 and according unto all H3605 that H834 the LORD H3068 our God H430 shall say, H559 so H3651 declare H5046 unto us , and we will do H6213 it .
21 And now I have this day H3117 declared H5046 it to you ; but ye have not H3808 obeyed H8085 the voice H6963 of the LORD H3068 your God, H430 nor any H3605 thing for the which H834 he hath sent H7971 me unto H413 you.
22 Now H6258 therefore know certainly H3045 H3045 that H3588 ye shall die H4191 by the sword, H2719 by the famine, H7458 and by the pestilence, H1698 in the place H4725 whither H834 H8033 ye desire H2654 to go H935 and to sojourn. H1481
