Jeremías 27:10

10 Porque ellos os profetizan mentira, para haceros alejar de vuestra tierra, y para que yo os arroje y perezcáis.

Jeremías 27:10 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 27:10

For they prophesy a lie unto you
That which was vain and false, and proved so; though they might not know it was when delivered: to remove you far from your land;
not that they designed it by their prophecies, but so it was eventually; for, standing it out against Nebuchadnezzar, encouraged by the lies and dreams of their prophets, he, in process of time, took them, and carried them captive into Babylon; whereas, had they surrendered at once, they might have continued in their own land, paying a tax or tribute to the king of Babylon: and that I should drive you out, and ye should perish;
drive them out of their own land, and so perish in a foreign land: God is said to do that which his servant or instrument did, being provoked by the sin and disobedience of the people, hearkening to their lying prophets, and not to him.

Jeremías 27:10 In-Context

8 Y será, que la gente y el reino que no sirviere a Nabucodonosor rey de Babilonia, y que no pusiere su cuello debajo del yugo del rey de Babilonia, con espada y con hambre y con pestilencia visitaré a tal gente, dice el SEÑOR, hasta que yo los acabe de poner a todos bajo su mano.

9 Y vosotros no prestéis oído a vuestros profetas, ni a vuestros adivinos, ni a vuestros sueños, ni a vuestros agoreros, ni a vuestros encantadores, que os hablan diciendo: No serviréis al rey de Babilonia.

10 Porque ellos os profetizan mentira, para haceros alejar de vuestra tierra, y para que yo os arroje y perezcáis.

11 Mas la gente que sometiere su cuello al yugo del rey de Babilonia, y le sirviere, la haré dejar en su tierra, dijo el SEÑOR, y la labrará, y morará en ella.

12 Y hablé también a Sedequías rey de Judá conforme a todas estas palabras, diciendo: Someted vuestros cuellos al yugo del rey de Babilonia, y servidle a él y a su pueblo, y vivid.
