Jeremiah 44:8-12

Brenton(i) 8 (51:8) by provoking me with the works of your hands, to burn incense to other gods in the land of Egypt, into which ye entered to dwell there, that ye might be cut off, and that ye might become a curse and a reproach among all the nations of the earth? 9 (51:9) Have ye forgotten the sins of your fathers, and the sins of the kings of Juda, and the sins of your princes, and the sins of your wives, which they wrought in the land of Juda, and in the streets of Jerusalem? 10 (51:10) And have not ceased even to this day, and they have not kept to my ordinances, which I set before their fathers. 11 (51:11) Therefore thus saith the Lord; Behold I do set my face against you 12 (51:12) to destroy all the remnant that are in Egypt; and they shall fall by the sword, and by famine, and shall be consumed small and great: and they shall be for reproach, and for destruction, and for a curse.
