Jeremiah 15:13

13 Your wealth and your treasures I will give as plunder, without cost,[a] for all your sins, and within all your borders.

Jeremiah 15:13 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 15:13

Thy substance and thy treasures will I give to the spoil
without price
Not the prophet's substance and treasure; for it does not appear that he had any, at least to require so much notice; but the substance and treasure of the people of the Jews, to whom these words are directed; these the Lord threatened should be delivered into the hands of their enemies, and become a spoil and free booty to them, for which they should give nothing, and which should never be redeemed again: and that for all thy sins, even in all thy borders;
this spoiling of their substance should befall them because of their sins, which they had committed in all the borders of their land, where they had built their high places, and had set up idolatrous worship; or else the meaning is, that their substance and treasure in all their borders, in every part of the land, should be the plunder of their enemies, because of their sins.

Jeremiah 15:13 In-Context

11 The Lord said: Assuredly, I will set you free and care for you. Assuredly, I will intercede for you in a time of trouble, in your time of distress, with the enemy.
12 Can anyone smash iron, iron from the north, or bronze?
13 Your wealth and your treasures I will give as plunder, without cost, for all your sins, and within all your borders.
14 Then I will make you serve your enemies in a land you do not know, for My anger will kindle a fire that will burn against you.
15 You know, Lord; remember me and take note of me. Avenge me against my persecutors. In Your patience, don't take me away. Know that I suffer disgrace for Your honor.
