Jeremías 42:16 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 42:16

Then it shall come to pass
That the various judgments following should come upon them: [that] the sword, which ye feared, shall overtake you there in the land
of Egypt;
that is, the sword; of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, which they feared they should fall by in Judea; this should come after them in Egypt, and there overtake them, as it did; Egypt being destroyed by the king of Babylon, as it was foretold it should, ( Jeremiah 46:25 Jeremiah 46:26 ) ; and the famine, whereof you were afraid, shalt follow close after you
there in Egypt;
the famine they were afraid would come upon them in Judea, should pursue them, overtake them, seize on them, and cleave unto them, in Egypt; thus the evils they thought to escape, by moving from one place, should befall them in another; there is no fleeing from the presence, power, and hand of God: and there ye shall die;
either by the sword, or by famine, or by pestilence, as in the ( Jeremiah 42:17 ) .

Jeremías 42:16 In-Context

14 sino que nos iremos a Egipto, donde no veremos guerra, ni escucharemos el sonido de la trompeta, ni pasaremos hambre, y allí nos quedaremos a vivir”,
15 entonces presten atención a la palabra del SEÑOR, ustedes los que quedan en Judá: Así dice el SEÑORTodopoderoso, el Dios de Israel: “Si ustedes insisten en trasladarse a Egipto para vivir allá,
16 la guerra que tanto temen los alcanzará, y el hambre que los aterra los seguirá de cerca hasta Egipto, y en ese lugar morirán.
17 Todos los que están empecinados en trasladarse a Egipto para vivir allá, morirán por la guerra, el hambre y la peste. Ninguno sobrevivirá ni escapará a la calamidad que haré caer sobre ellos”.
18 Porque así dice el SEÑOR Todopoderoso, el Dios de Israel: “Así como se ha derramado mi ira y mi furor sobre los habitantes de Jerusalén, así se derramará mi furor sobre ustedes, si se van a Egipto. Se convertirán en objeto de maldición, de horror, de imprecación y de oprobio, y nunca más volverán a ver este lugar”.
