Jeremiah 43:11-13

Contemporary English Version

¹¹ He will attack Egypt and kill many of its people; others will die of disease or be dragged away as prisoners. ^12-13 I will let him set Egypt's temples on fire, and he will either burn or carry off their idols. He will destroy the sacred monuments at the temple of the sun-god.^[a] Then Nebuchadnezzar will pick the land clean, just like a shepherd picking the lice off his clothes. And he will return safely home.
