Jeremiah 44:28 in Context — Jeremiah 44

26 Por tanto, oid palabra de Jehová, todo Judá que habitáis en tierra de Egipto: He aquí he jurado por mi grande nombre, dice Jehová, que mi nombre no será más invocado en toda la tierra de Egipto por boca de ningún hombre Judío, diciendo: Vive el Señor Jehová.

27 He aquí que yo velo sobre ellos para mal, y no para bien; y todos los hombres de Judá que están en tierra de Egipto, serán consumidos á cuchillo y de hambre, hasta que perezcan del todo.

28 Y los que escaparen del cuchillo, volverán de tierra de Egipto á tierra de Judá, pocos hombres; sabrán pues todas las reliquias de Judá, que han entrado en Egipto á morar allí la palabra de quién ha de permanecer, si la mía, ó la suya.

29 Y esto tendréis por señal, dice Jehová, de que en este lugar os visito, para que sepáis que de cierto permanecerán mis palabras para mal sobre vosotros.

30 Así ha dicho Jehová: He aquí que yo entrego á Faraón Hophra rey de Egipto en mano de sus enemigos, y en mano de los que buscan su alma, como entregué á Sedechîas rey de Judá en mano de Nabucodonosor rey de Babilonia, su enemigo, y que buscaba su alma.
