Jeremiah 13:26

Jeremiah 13:26

24 “Therefore I will ^ascatter them ^blike stubble
That passes away by the wind of the wilderness.

25 ^aThis is your lot,
The portion of your measures from Me,” says the Lord,
“Because you have forgotten Me
And trusted in ^bfalsehood.

26 Therefore ^aI will uncover your skirts over your face,
That your shame may appear.

27 I have seen your adulteries
And your lustful ^aneighings,
The lewdness of your harlotry,
Your abominations ^bon the hills in the fields.
Woe to you, O Jerusalem!
Will you still not be made clean?”

Jeremiah 13:27 >>

discover . . . upon thy face—rather, "throw up thy skirts over thy face," or head; done by way of ignominy to captive women and to prostitutes (Nahum 3:5). The Jews' punishment should answer to their crime. As their sin had been perpetrated in the most public places, so God would expose them to the contempt of other nations most openly (Lamentations 1:8).
