Verses 13-16
However, if the people decided to leave the land and not listen to the Lord’s voice, if they chose to go to Egypt where they thought they would be safe and have plenty of food, they would surely die by the sword, famine, and disease there. The Lord made His will very clear to the remnant. None of them would survive the calamity He would bring on them.
"Just as Yahweh’s sovereignty can insure the safety of the faithful against repercussions from the king of Babylon, so will the judgment of Yahweh reach even to Egypt." [Note: Keown, p. 251.]
