Jeremiah 42:13 Context
11Be not afraid of the king of Babylon, of whom yee are afraid: be not afraid of him, saith the Lord: for I am with you to saue you, and to deliuer you from his hand. 12And I will shew mercies vnto you, that he may haue mercy vpon you; and cause you to returne to your owne land. 13¶ But if ye say, We will not dwell in this land, neither obey the voice of the Lord your God, 14Saying, No, but we will goe into the land of Egypt, where we shall see no warre, nor heare the sound of the Trumpet, nor haue hunger of bread, and there will we dwell: 15(And now therefore heare the word of the Lord, yee remnant of Iudah, Thus saith the Lord of hostes the God of Israel, If ye wholly set your faces to enter into Egypt, and goe to soiourne there:)
