14 “Announce it in Egypt, and proclaim it in Migdol; proclaim it in Memphis and Tahpanhes: ‘Take your positions and prepare yourself, for the sword devours those around you.’ 15 Why have your warriors been laid low? They cannot stand, for the LORD has thrust them down. 16 They continue to stumble; indeed, they have fallen over one another. They say, ‘Get up! Let us return to our people and to the land of our birth, away from the sword of the oppressor.’ 17 There they will cry out: ‘Pharaoh king of Egypt was all noise; he has let the appointed time pass him by.’ Jeremiah 46:14-17, Berean Standard Bible.
