Jeremiah 42:14 in Context — Jeremiah 42

12 E vos concederei misericórdia, de modo que ele tenha misericórdia de vós, e vos faça voltar a vossa terra.

13 Mas se disserdes: Não ficaremos nesta terra, desobedecendo à voz do SENHOR vosso Deus,

14 E dizendo: Não, em vez disso iremos à terra do Egito, na qual não veremos guerra, nem ouviremos som de trombeta, nem teremos fome de pão, e ali ficaremos;

15 Então assim ouvi a palavra do SENHOR, ó restantes de Judá; assim diz o SENHOR dos exércitos, Deus de Israel: Se dirigirdes vossos rostos para entrar no Egito, e irdes para peregrinar ali,

16 Será que a espada que vós temeis, ali ela vos tomará na terra do Egito, e a fome que vos deixa preocupados, ali no Egito ela vos pegará; e ali morrereis.
