Jeremiah 46:20

← Jeremiah 46:19	Jeremiah 46:20 (KJV)	Jeremiah 46:21 →
O thou daughter dwelling in Egypt, furnish thyself to go into captivity: for Noph shall be waste and desolate without an inhabitant.	Egypt [is like] a very fair heifer, [but] destruction cometh; it cometh out of the north.	Also her hired men [are] in the midst of her like fatted bullocks; for they also are turned back, [and] are fled away together: they did not stand, because the day of their calamity was come upon them, [and] the time of their visitation.
