Jeremiah 15:4 - Forerunner Commentary

Jeremiah 15:4

2 And it shall be, if they say to you, ‘Where should we go?’ then you shall tell them, ‘Thus says the Lord:
^a“Such as are for death, to death;
And such as are for the sword, to the sword;
And such as are for the famine, to the famine;
And such as are for the ^bcaptivity, to the captivity.” ’

3 “And I will ^aappoint over them four forms of destruction,” says the Lord: “the sword to slay, the dogs to drag, ^bthe birds of the heavens and the beasts of the earth to devour and destroy.

4 I will hand them over to ^atrouble, to all kingdoms of the earth, because of ^bManasseh the son of Hezekiah, king of Judah, for what he did in Jerusalem.

5 “For who will have pity on you, O Jerusalem?
Or who will bemoan you?
Or who will turn aside to ask how you are doing?

6 ^aYou have forsaken Me,” says the Lord,
“You have ^bgone backward.
Therefore I will stretch out My hand against you and destroy you;
^cI am¹ weary of relenting!
