2 Azariah (YHWH has helped) son of Hoshaiah (YHWH as saved), Johanan (YHWH has graced) son of Kareah (bald), and all the arrogant men said to Jeremiah (whom YHWH has appointed), “You are lying! The LORD our God {YHWH Elohenu} has not sent you to say, ‘You must not go to Egypt (land of bondage) to reside there.’ 3 Rather, Baruch (blessed) son of Neriah (lamp of YHWH) is inciting you against us to deliver us into the hands of the Chaldeans (the Babylonians), so that they may put us to death or exile us to Babylon (confusion by mixing)!” Jeremiah 43:2-3, Berean Annotated Bible.
