Jeremiah 26:13 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 26:13

Therefore now amend your ways and your doings
Make them good; leave your evil ways, and walk in good ways; forsake your evil works, and do good works: and obey the voice of the Lord your God;
and that because he is your God, as well as what his word directs to is good, and for your good: and the Lord will repent him of the evil that he hath pronounced
against you;
will do as men do when they repent, change their method of acting, and manner of behaviour; so the Lord is said to repent or turn, when he changes the method and conduct of his providence towards men, though he never changes his mind or counsel.

Jeremiah 26:13 In-Context

11 The priests and the prophets said to the officials and all the people: "This man deserves to die for prophesying against this city as you have all heard firsthand."

12 Jeremiah said to all the officials and to all the people, "The LORD sent me to prophesy to this temple and this city everything you have heard.

13 So now transform your ways and actions. Obey the LORD your God, and the LORD may relent and not carry out the harm that he's pronounced against you.

14 But me? I'm in your hands. Do whatever you would like to me.

15 Only know for certain that if you sentence me to death, you and the people of this city will be guilty of killing an innocent man. The LORD has in fact sent me to speak everything I have said to you."
