Jeremiah 44:2

A Message Of Rebuke For The Rebellious Remnant

¹ This is the word that came to Jeremiah for all the Jews living in the land of Egypt—at Migdol, Tahpanhes, Memphis, and in the land of Pathros: ² “This is what the Lord of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: You have seen all the disaster I brought against Jerusalem and all Judah’s cities; look, they are a ruin today without an inhabitant in them ³ because of their evil ways that provoked Me to anger, going and burning incense to serve other gods that they, you, and your fathers did not know.
