Made Simple — Modern English Translation

Then it shall come to pass, that the sword, which ye feared, shall overtake you there in the land of Egypt, and the famine, whereof ye were afraid, shall follow close after you there in Egypt; and there ye shall die.

✦ MADE SIMPLE

The very thing you're running from — war and starvation — will catch up with you in Egypt. You think you're escaping to safety, but that's exactly where those fears will become reality, and that's where your story will end.

⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE

You can't outrun God's plan by running to the wrong place.
