And I will persecute them with the sword, with the famine, and with the pestilence, and will deliver them to be removed to all the kingdoms of the earth, to be a curse, and an astonishment, and an hissing, and a reproach, among all the nations whither I have driven them:

The verse 18 is found in chapter 29 of Jeremiah. The false prophets among the exiles are confronted because of their deceptive message. Shemaiah attempts to discredit Jeremiah, but God announces judgment upon him. The section shows that the exiled community must distinguish true hope from immediate promises that contradict the divine word.

und will hinter ihnen her sein mit Schwert, Hunger und Pestilenz und will sie in keinem Königreich auf Erden bleiben lassen, daß sie sollen zum Fluch, zum Wunder, zum Hohn und zum Spott unter allen Völkern werden, dahin ich sie verstoßen werde,
Y perseguirelos con espada, con hambre y con pestilencia; y darelos por escarnio a todos los reinos de la tierra, por maldición y por espanto, y por silbo y por afrenta a todas la gentes a las cuales los habré arrojado;
Los perseguiré con la espada, el hambre y la peste. Los convertiré en motivo de horror para todos los reinos de la tierra, en maldición, espanto, burla y afrenta entre todas las naciones adonde los he arrojado.
Je les poursuivrai par l'épée, par la famine et par la peste, je les rendrai un objet d'effroi pour tous les royaumes de la terre, un sujet de malédiction, de désolation, de moquerie et d'opprobre, parmi toutes les nations où je les chasserai,
E li perseguirò con la spada, con la fame, e con la pestilenza; e farò che saranno agitati per tutti i regni della terra; e saranno in esecrazione, e in istupore, e in zufolo, e in vituperio fra tutte le genti, dove li avrò scacciati.
E persegui-los-ei com a espada, com a fome, e com a peste; e dá-los-ei para deslocarem-se por todos os reinos da terra, para serem uma maldição, e um espanto, e um assobio, e um opróbrio entre todas as nações para onde os tiver lançado.
我必用刀劍、饑荒、瘟疫追趕他們,使地上萬國因他們而驚駭;在我趕他們到的各國,令人詛咒、驚駭、嗤笑、羞辱。
