Jeremiah 4:28 - Forerunner Commentary

Jeremiah 4:28

26 I beheld, and indeed the fruitful land was a ^awilderness,
And all its cities were broken down
At the presence of the Lord,
By His fierce anger.

27 For thus says the Lord:
“The whole land shall be desolate;
^aYet I will not make a full end.

28 For this ^ashall the earth mourn,
And ^bthe heavens above be black,
Because I have spoken.
I have ^cpurposed and ^dwill not relent,
Nor will I turn back from it.

29 The whole city shall flee from the noise of the horsemen and bowmen.
They shall go into thickets and climb up on the rocks.
Every city shall be forsaken,
And not a man shall dwell in it.

30 “And when you are plundered,
What will you do?
Though you clothe yourself with crimson,
Though you adorn yourself with ornaments of gold,
^aThough you enlarge your eyes with paint,
In vain you will make yourself fair;
^bYour lovers will despise you;
They will seek your life.
