Jeremías 44:12

Listen to Jeremías 44:12
12 Tomaré al resto de Judá, que se empecinó en ir a vivir a Egipto, y todos perecerán allí; caerán a filo de espada, o el hambre los exterminará. Desde el más pequeño hasta el más grande, morirán de hambre o a filo de espada. Se convertirán en objeto de maldición, de horror, de imprecación y de oprobio.

Jeremías 44:12 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 44:12

And I will take the remnant of Judah
Such as remained of that tribe in the land of Judea after the captivity: and not all of them, but such that have set their faces to go into the land of Egypt to sojourn
there:
who were bent upon going thither, notwithstanding all the remonstrances made to them to the contrary; and were gone thither, and were now actually sojourners there: this describes such persons who wilfully, and of their own accord, went thither; and excepts those who were over-persuaded or over-powered to go along with them: and they shall all be consumed, [and] fall in the land of Egypt;
not by natural death, one after another; but by the judgments of God, as follows: they shall [even] be consumed by the sword [and] by the famine;
by the sword of the king of Babylon; and by famine, occasioned by a foreign army and sieges: they shall die; from the least even unto the greatest, by the sword and
by the famine;
which is repeated for the confirmation of it, and to express the universality of the destruction; that it should reach to persons of every age, state and condition, rank and degree, young and old, high and low, rich and poor: and they shall be an execration, [and] an astonishment, and a curse,
and a reproach; (See Gill on Jeremiah 42:18).

Jeremías 44:12 In-Context

10 Sin embargo, hasta el día de hoy no se han humillado ni han sentido temor; no se han comportado según mi ley y mis preceptos, que les di a ustedes y a sus antepasados”.
11 »Por eso, así dice el SEÑOR Todopoderoso, el Dios de Israel: “He decidido ponerme en contra de ustedes, para su mal, y destruir a todo Judá.
12 Tomaré al resto de Judá, que se empecinó en ir a vivir a Egipto, y todos perecerán allí; caerán a filo de espada, o el hambre los exterminará. Desde el más pequeño hasta el más grande, morirán de hambre o a filo de espada. Se convertirán en objeto de maldición, de horror, de imprecación y de oprobio.
13 Con hambre, peste y espada castigaré a los que habitan en Egipto, como castigué a Jerusalén.
14 No escapará ninguno del resto de Judá que se fue a vivir a Egipto, ni sobrevivirá para volver a Judá. Aunque deseen y añoren volver a vivir en Judá, no podrán regresar, salvo algunos fugitivos”».
