Edified Edition (EDE)Now therefore, this is what the Lord God of Heaven's Armies, the God of Israel, says: Why do you bring such great harm upon yourselves, to cut off from Judah men and women, children and infants, leaving you without a remnant?

Edified Edition (EDE)"In that you provoke Me to wrath with the works of your hands, burning incense to other gods in the land of Egypt, Where you be gone to dwell, that you might cut yourselves off, and that you might be a curse and a reproach among all the nations of the earth?"

Edified Edition (EDE)"So that none of the remnant of Judah, which are gone into the land of Egypt to sojourn there, shall escape or remain, that they should return into the land of Judah, to the which they have a desire to return to dwell there: for none shall return but such as shall escape."
