Jeremiah 42:20-22 For ye have deceived yourselves at the cost of your lives, for, ye yourselves, sent me unto Yahweh your God, saying,––Pray thou in our behalf, unto Yahweh our God,––and, according to all that Yahweh our God shall say, so, tell us, and we will do it.

Rotherham⁽ⁱ⁾ ²⁰ For ye have deceived yourselves at the cost of your lives, for, ye yourselves, sent me unto Yahweh your God, saying,––Pray thou in our behalf, unto Yahweh our God,––and, according to all that Yahweh our God shall say, so, tell us, and we will do it. ²¹ Therefore have I told you today,––and yet ye have not hearkened unto the voice of Yahweh your God, even in any thing for which he hath sent me unto you. ²² Now, therefore, know ye certainly, that, by sword, by famine, or by pestilence, shall ye die,––in the place whither ye have desired to go, to sojourn.
