⁷ And they came into the land of Egypt; for they did not give ear to the voice of the Lord: and they came to Tahpanhes.

¹⁶ Even the children of Noph and Tahpanhes have put shame on you.

¹ The word which came to Jeremiah about all the Jews who were living in the land of Egypt, in Migdol and at Tahpanhes and at Noph and in the country of Pathros, saying,

⁴ For his chiefs are at Zoan, and his representatives have come to Hanes.

¹⁴ Give the news in Migdol, make it public in Noph: say, Take up your positions and make yourselves ready; for on every side of you the sword has made destruction.

¹⁶ But while he was talking to him the king said to him, Have we made you one of the king's government? say no more, or it will be the cause of your death. Then the prophet gave up protesting, and said, It is clear to me that God's purpose is your destruction, because you have done this and have not given ear to my words.

¹⁸ And at Tehaphnehes the day will become dark, when the yoke of Egypt is broken there, and the pride of her power comes to an end: as for her, she will be covered with a cloud, and her daughters will be taken away prisoners.
