The word that came to Jeremiah concerning all the Jews which dwell in the land of Egypt, who dwell at Migdol, and Tahpanhes, and Memphis, and in the country of Pathros, saying,
Declare in Egypt and proclaim in Migdol, and pronounce in Memphis and in Tahpanhes; say, “Stand fast and prepare yourself, for the sword will devour those about you.”
In Tahpanhes also the day shall be darkened, when I break there the yokes of Egypt. And the pomp of her strength shall cease in her; as for her, a cloud shall cover her, and her daughters shall go into captivity.
