Jeremiah 9:15 - Forerunner Commentary

Jeremiah 9:15

13 And the Lord said, “Because they have forsaken My law which I set before them, and have ^anot obeyed My voice, nor walked according to it,

14 but they have ^awalked according to the dictates of their own hearts and after the Baals, ^bwhich their fathers taught them,”

15 therefore thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: “Behold, I will ^afeed them, this people, ^bwith wormwood, and give them water of gall to drink.

16 I will ^ascatter them also among the Gentiles, whom neither they nor their fathers have known. ^bAnd I will send a sword after them until I have consumed them.”

The People Mourn in Judgment

17 Thus says the Lord of hosts:
“Consider and call for ^athe mourning women,
That they may come;
And send for skillful wailing women,
That they may come.
