So shall it be with all the men that set their faces to go into Egypt to sojourn there; they shall die by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence: and none of them shall remain or escape from the evil that I will bring upon them.
All the men - excepting the "small number" mentioned (Jeremiah 44:14; Jeremiah 44:28) - namely, those who were forced into Egypt against their will, as Jeremiah, Baruch, etc., and those who took Jeremiah's advice, fled from Egypt before the arrival of the Chaldeans.
