¹⁷ Och I skolen hålla det osyrade brödets högtid, eftersom jag på denna samma dag har fört edra härskaror ut ur Egyptens land. Därför skolen I, släkte efter släkte, hålla denna dag såsom en evärdlig stiftelse.

³¹ Då trodde folket; och när de hörde att HERREN hade sett till Israels barn, och att han hade sett deras betryck, böjde de sig ned och tillbådo.

¹³ But if you say, We will not dwell in this land; so that you don't obey the voice of Yahweh your God,

¹⁴ saying, No; but we will go into the land of Egypt, where we shall see no war, nor hear the sound of the trumpet, nor have hunger of bread; and there will we dwell:

¹⁵ now therefore hear the word of Yahweh, O remnant of Judah: Thus says Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel, If you indeed set your faces to enter into Egypt, and go to live there;

¹⁶ then it shall happen, that the sword, which you fear, shall overtake you there in the land of Egypt; and the famine, about which you are afraid, shall follow close behind you there in Egypt; and there you shall die.

¹⁷ So shall it be with all the men who set their faces to go into Egypt to live there: they shall die by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence; and none of them shall remain or escape from the evil that I will bring on them.

¹⁸ For thus says Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel: As my anger and my wrath has been poured forth on the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so shall my wrath be poured forth on you, when you shall enter into Egypt; and you shall be an object of horror, and an astonishment, and a curse, and a reproach; and you shall see this place no more.
