And when he cometh, he shall smite the land of Egypt, and deliver such as are for death to death; and such as are for captivity to captivity; and such as are for the sword to the sword.

The verse 11 is found in chapter 43 of Jeremiah. The people accuse Jeremiah of lying and march to Egypt, taking the prophet and Baruch with them. There Jeremiah announces that Nebuchadnezzar will extend his rule into Egypt. The move demonstrates that fleeing geographically from judgment does not mean escaping God’s sovereignty.

Und er soll kommen und Ägyptenland schlagen, und töten, wen es trifft, gefangen führen, wen es trifft, mit dem Schwert schlagen, wen es trifft.
Y vendrá, y herirá la tierra de Egipto: los que a muerte, a muerte, y los que a cautiverio, a cautiverio, y los que a cuchillo, a cuchillo.
Vendrá y atacará la tierra de Egipto: los destinados a la muerte, a la muerte; los destinados al cautiverio, al cautiverio; y los destinados a la espada, a la espada.
Il viendra, et il frappera le pays d'Egypte; à la mort ceux qui sont pour la mort, à la captivité ceux qui sont pour la captivité, à l'épée ceux qui sont pour l'épée!
E verrà e percoterà il paese di Egitto, mettendo a morte chi è condannato a morte; e menando in cattività chi è condannato a cattività; e percotendo colla spada chi è condannato alla spada.
E virá, e ferirá a terra do Egito; entregando para a morte, quem é para a morte; e quem é para o cativeiro, para o cativeiro; e quem é para a espada, para a espada.
他要來攻擊 埃及 地: 定為死亡的,必致死亡; 定為擄掠的,必遭擄掠; 定為刀殺的,必被刀殺。
