<p class="poetry">Then you will again be my peoplep> <p class="poetry">and I will be your God.<n id="1" />p>

Those are the terms that I charged your ancestors<n id="1" /> to keep<n id="2" /> when I brought them out of Egypt, that place which was like an iron-smelting furnace.<n id="3" /> I said at that time,<n id="4" /> &#8220;Obey me and carry out the terms of the agreement<n id="5" /> exactly as I commanded you. If you do,<n id="6" /> you will be my people and I will be your God.<n id="7" />

For<n id="1" /> the <sc>Lordsc> God of Israel who rules over all<n id="2" /> says, &#8216;If you go to Egypt, I will pour out my wrath on you just as I poured out my anger and wrath on the citizens of Jerusalem.<n id="3" /> You will become an object of horror and ridicule, an example of those who have been cursed and that people use in pronouncing a curse.<n id="4" /> You will never see this place again.&#8217;<n id="5" />p>
