24The daughter of Egypt will be disappointed;she will be delivered into the hand of the people of the north.” 25Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel, says: “Behold, I will punish Amon of No, and Pharaoh, and Egypt, with her gods and her kings, even Pharaoh, and those who trust in him. 26I will deliver them into the hand of those who seek their lives, and into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and into the hand of his servants. Afterwards it will be inhabited, as in the days of old,” says Yahweh. 27“But don’t you be afraid, Jacob my servant.Don’t be dismayed, Israel;for, behold, I will save you from afar,and your offspring from the land of their captivity.Jacob will return,and will be quiet and at ease.No one will make him afraid. 28Don’t be afraid, O Jacob my servant,” says Yahweh,“for I am with you;for I will make a full end of all the nations where I have driven you,but I will not make a full end of you,but I will correct you in measure,and will in no way leave you unpunished.”
