Jeremiah 42:18 For thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: As my anger and my indignation hath been kindled against the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so shall my indignation be kindled against you, when you shall enter into Egypt, and you shall be an execration, and an astonishment, and a curse, and a reproach; and you shall see this place no more.

Kindled. Hebrew, "hath dropped," 2 Paralipomenon 12:7. --- Curse. People can wish no greater misery to their enemies. (Calmet) --- They shall be execrated, Isaias 65:15. (Worthington)
