1 THE word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD to prophesy concerning all the Jews who dwell in the land of Egypt: those who dwell at Migdol and at Tahpanhes and at Memphis and in the land of Pathros, saying, 2 Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: You have seen all the calamity that I have brought upon Jerusalem and upon all the cities of Judah; and behold, this day they are desolate, and no man dwells in them 3 Because of the wickedness which they have committed to provoke me to anger, in that they went and burned incense to other gods, whom they knew not, neither they nor their fathers. 4 And I sent to them all my servants the prophets, in advance, saying. Oh, do not do this abominable thing that I hate. 5 But they did not hearken nor incline their ear to turn from their wickedness, to burn no incense to other gods. Jeremiah 44:1-5, Lamsa Bible.
