Ethiopia, and Libya, and Lydia, and all the mingled people, and Chub, and the men of the land that is in league, shall fall with them by the sword.

All the mingled people - the mercenary troops of Egypt from various lands, mostly from the interior of Africa (cf. ; ; ; ; ).

Chub - the people named Kufa on the monuments (Havernick); a people considerably north of Palestine (Wilkinson); Coba or Chobat, a city of Mauritania (Maurer).

The men of the land that is in league - too definite an expression to mean merely men in league with Egypt; rather, 'son's of the land of the covenant' - i:e., the Jews who migrated to Egypt and carried Jeremiah with them (Jeremiah 42:1; Jeremiah 43:1; Jeremiah 44:1.) Even they shall not escape (; ).
