@ So shall it be with all the

by the
sword

famine

pestilence

escape
from

evil
that I will

saith
the
LORD

hosts

God

anger
and my
fury
hath been poured
forth
upon the
inhabitants

Jerusalem
; so shall my
fury
be poured
forth
upon you, when ye shall
enter
into
Egypt

execration
, and an
astonishment
, and a
curse
, and a
reproach
; and ye shall
see

place
no more.

admonished
you this

for us unto the

declare
unto us, and we will
do
it.

it to you; but ye have not

the
voice

your

sent
me unto you.

whither ye
desire
to
go

sojourn
