Jeremias 6:26 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 6:26

O daughter of my people, gird thee with sackcloth
Either as a token of repentance for sin; so the king of Nineveh and his subjects did, to show their repentance, ( Jonah 3:6 Jonah 3:8 ) or as a sign of mourning, for the calamities coming on them, ( Genesis 37:34 ) and wallow thyself in ashes;
or roll thyself in them, as a token of the same. The Targum is,

``cover your heads with ashes.''
Make thee mourning as for an only son;
which of all is the most bitter: and therefore it is added, most bitter lamentation;
see ( Zechariah 12:10 ) . For the spoiler shall suddenly come upon us;
namely, Nebuchadnezzar, that would spoil their cities, towns, villages, and houses, and them of all their wealth and substance, and carry it away.

Jeremias 6:26 In-Context

24 Ao ouvirmos a notícia disso, afrouxam-se as nossas mãos; apoderam-se de nós angústia e dores, como as de parturiente.
25 Não saiais ao campo, nem andeis pelo caminho; porque espada do inimigo e espanto há por todos os lados.
26 ç filha do meu povo, cingi-te de saco, e revolve-te na cinza; pranteia como por um filho único, em pranto de grande amargura; porque de repente virá o destruidor sobre nós.
27 Por acrisolador e examinador te pus entre o meu povo, para que proves e examines o seu caminho.
28 Todos eles são os mais rebeldes, e andam espalhando calúnias; são bronze e ferro; todos eles andam corruptamente.
