What does Jeremiah 44:26 mean?

But listen to what the Lord says to everyone from Judah living in Egypt: 'I swear by my own great name, none of you will ever use my name again in Egypt, saying, “As surely as the Lord God lives.”' Jeremiah 44:26 - Modern Text Bible

(God declares that his name will no longer be honored or even spoken by these people in Egypt, a sign of their complete separation from him.)
