Jeremiah 2:16 The men of Memphis and Tahpanhes have shaved the crown of your head.
Jeremiah 43:7–9 So they entered the land of Egypt because they did not obey the voice of the LORD, and they went as far as Tahpanhes. / Then the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah at Tahpanhes: / “In the sight of the Jews, pick up some large stones and bury them in the clay of the brick pavement at the entrance to Pharaoh’s palace at Tahpanhes.
Jeremiah 44:1 This is the word that came to Jeremiah concerning all the Jews living in the land of Egypt—in Migdol, Tahpanhes, and Memphis—and in the land of Pathros:
Jeremiah 46:14 “Announce it in Egypt, and proclaim it in Migdol; proclaim it in Memphis and Tahpanhes: ‘Take your positions and prepare yourself, for the sword devours those around you.’
Ezekiel 30:18 The day will be darkened in Tahpanhes when I break the yoke of Egypt and her proud strength comes to an end. A cloud will cover her, and her daughters will go into captivity.
