Jer. 42, 43

The remnant of Judah inquired of Jeremiah to ask the Lord what they should do for fear of the Babylonian king and army. He complied. In ten days, God answered, “Stay in Judah and you will live.” However, the Jews disregarded God’s instructions and fled to Egypt. There, sadly, Nebuchadnezar’s army destroyed them and much of Egypt.

The moral; obey God and live. (Even if it is contrary to your human inclinations)
