44:22. So that the Lord could no longer bear, because of the evil of
your doings, and because of the abominations which you have committed:
therefore your land is become a desolation, and an astonishment, and a
curse, without an inhabitant, as at this day.
44:23. Because you have sacrificed to idols, and have sinned against the
Lord: and have not obeyed the voice of the Lord, and have not walked in
his law, and in his commandments, and in his testimonies: therefore are
these evils come upon you, as at this day.
44:24. And Jeremias said to all the people and to all the women: Hear ye
the word of the Lord, all Juda, you that dwell in the land of Egypt:
44:25. Thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel, saying: You and
your wives have spoken with your mouth, and fulfilled with your hands,
saying: Let us perform our vows which we have made, to offer sacrifice
to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings to her: you have
fulfilled your vows, and have performed them indeed.
44:26. Therefore hear ye the word of the Lord, all Juda, you that dwell
in the land of Egypt: Behold I have sworn by my great name, saith the
Lord: that my name shall no more be named in the mouth of any man of
Juda, in the land of Egypt, saying: The Lord God liveth.
44:27. Behold I will watch over them for evil, and not for good: and all
the men of Juda that are in the land of Egypt, shall be consumed, by the
sword, and by famine, till there be an end of them.
44:28. And a few men that shall flee from the sword, shall return out of
the land of Egypt into the land of Juda: and all the remnant of Juda
that are gone into the land of Egypt to dwell there, shall know whose
word shall stand, mine, or theirs.
44:29. And this shall be a sign to you, saith the Lord, that I will
punish you in this place: that you may know that my words shall be
accomplished indeed against you for evil.
44:30. Thus saith the Lord: Behold I will deliver Pharao Nechao king of
Egypt into the hand of his enemies, and into the hand of them that seek
his life: as I delivered Sedecias king of Juda into the land of
Nabuchodonosor the king of Babylon his enemy, and that sought his life.

45:3. Thou hast said: Woe is me, wretch that I am, for the Lord hath
added sorrow to my sorrow: I am wearied with my groans, and I find no
rest.
45:4. Thus saith the Lord: Thus shalt thou say to him: Behold, them whom
I have built, I do destroy: and them whom I have planted, I do pluck up,
and all this land.
45:5. And dost thou seek great things for thyself? Seek not: for behold
I will bring evil upon all flesh, saith the Lord! but I will give thee
