En stor del af judæerne søger alligevel tilflugt i Egypten

1 Da jeg havde givet dem Herrens svar, 2 sagde Jezanja,* Johanan og de andre overmodige mænd til mig: „Du lyver! Herren har ikke sagt, at vi ikke må rejse til Egypten og bosætte os der. Det er Baruk, Nerijas søn, der står bag den idé. Det er ham, der har overtalt dig til at sige sådan, så vi kan blive slået ihjel af babylonierne eller gjort til slaver i Babylonien.” 4 Johanan, officererne og de øvrige ledere nægtede altså at adlyde Herrens befaling om at blive i Juda. 5 Johanan og de andre officerer samlede en stor gruppe judæere og begav sig af sted til Egypten. Deriblandt var alle de judæere, der netop var vendt hjem fra nabolandene, som de i sin tid var flygtet til. 6 Også kongens døtre og alle de andre, som Nebuzaradan havde overladt i Gedaljas varetægt i Mitzpa, blev taget med, både mænd, kvinder og børn. De tvang også Baruk og mig til at tage med. 7 De nægtede altså at adlyde Herren og nåede inden længe frem til byen Takpankes i Egypten. 8 Mens vi var i Takpankes, sagde Herren til mig: 9 „Kald Judas mænd sammen. Tag så i deres påsyn nogle store sten og grav dem ned i brolægningen ved indgangen til Faraos palads her i Takpankes. 10 Derefter skal du sige til judæerne: Hør, hvad Herren, den Almægtige, Israels Gud, siger: Kong Nebukadnezar af Babylon er min tjener, og jeg vil bringe ham her til Egypten. Han vil rejse sin trone på brolægningen og udspænde sin tronhimmel over de sten, der er gravet ned her. 11 Når han kommer, vil han rasere Egypten. Nogle vil blive dræbt i kampen, andre vil blive taget til fange, og andre vil dø af sygdom. Alle vil få den skæbne, som er bestemt for dem. 12 Nebukadnezar vil sætte ild til de egyptiske guders templer og enten brænde afgudsbillederne eller tage dem med sig. Som hyrden, der piller lus af sin kappe, vil den babyloniske konge pille Egypten ren og drage bort som sejrherre. 13 Han vil knuse de hellige obelisker i Heliopolis og brænde Egyptens gudetempler.”

Jeremiah Taken to Egypt

1 When Jeremiah finished speaking to all the people all these words of the Lord their God, with which the Lord their God had sent him to them, 2 Azariah the son of Hoshaiah and Johanan the son of Kareah and all the insolent men said to Jeremiah, “You are telling a lie. The Lord our God did not send you to say, ‘Do not go to Egypt to live there,’ 3 but Baruch the son of Neriah has set you against us, to deliver us into the hand of the Chaldeans, that they may kill us or take us into exile in Babylon.” 4 So Johanan the son of Kareah and all the commanders of the forces and all the people did not obey the voice of the Lord, to remain in the land of Judah. 5 But Johanan the son of Kareah and all the commanders of the forces took all the remnant of Judah who had returned to live in the land of Judah from all the nations to which they had been driven— 6 the men, the women, the children, the princesses, and every person whom Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard had left with Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, son of Shaphan; also Jeremiah the prophet and Baruch the son of Neriah. 7 And they came into the land of Egypt, for they did not obey the voice of the Lord. And they arrived at Tahpanhes. 8 Then the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah in Tahpanhes: 9 “Take in your hands large stones and hide them in the mortar in the pavement that is at the entrance to Pharaoh’s palace in Tahpanhes, in the sight of the men of Judah, 10 and say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: Behold, I will send and take Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, my servant, and I will set his throne above these stones that I have hidden, and he will spread his royal canopy over them. 11 He shall come and strike the land of Egypt, giving over to the pestilence those who are doomed to the pestilence, to captivity those who are doomed to captivity, and to the sword those who are doomed to the sword. 12 I shall kindle a fire in the temples of the gods of Egypt, and he shall burn them and carry them away captive. And he shall clean the land of Egypt as a shepherd cleans his cloak of vermin, and he shall go away from there in peace. 13 He shall break the obelisks of Heliopolis, which is in the land of Egypt, and the temples of the gods of Egypt he shall burn with fire.’”
