Jeremiah 42:10-18 If ye wyll dwell in this lande, I shall buylde you vp, and not breake you downe: I shall plante you, and not rote you out: for I repent, as concernynge the trouble that I haue done to you.

Great⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁰ If ye wyll dwell in this lande, I shall buylde you vp, and not breake you downe: I shall plante you, and not rote you out: for I repent, as concernynge the trouble that I haue done to you. ¹¹ Feare not the kynge of Babylon, of whom ye stand in awe, O, be not afrayed of him, sayeth the Lorde: for I wyll be wt you, to helpe you, and delyuer you from his hande. ¹² I wyll pardon you, I wyll haue mercy vpon you, and cause him to pytie you, & bringe you agayne into youre awne lande. ¹³ Neuertheles, yf ye purpose not to dwell in this lande, ner to folowe the voyce of the Lorde youre God: ¹⁴ but wyll saye thus, we will not dwell here, but go into Egypt: where we shal nether se warre, heare the noyse of the trompe, ner suffre honger, there wyll we dwell. ¹⁵ Wherfore, heare nowe the worde of the Lord, O ye remnaunt of Iuda. Thus sayeth the Lorde of hoostes the God of Israel: If ye be wholy purposed to go into Egypte, & ye entre ther to dwell as straungers: ¹⁶ the swearde that ye feared shall ouer take you in Egypte and the honger wherof ye be here afrayed shall hange vpon you & folowe you into Egypte, and there ye shall dye. ¹⁷ And all they, that of sett purpose vndertake to go into Egipte to soiourne there, shall perysh with the swearde, with honger and pestilence: not one of them shall remayne, there shall none escape the plage, that I wyll brynge vpon them. ¹⁸ For thus sayeth the Lorde of hoostes the God of Israel: lyke as my wrath and indygnacyon is moued agaynst the inhabitatours of Ierusalem, so shall my displeasure be kyndled agaynst you also, yf ye go into Egypte: & there ye shalbe reuyled, abhorred, brought to shame and confusyon: and as for thys place, ye shall neuer se it more.
