Jeremias 5:13 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 5:13

And the prophets shall become wind
Their prophecies shall vanish into air; they shall become of no effect; they shall never be accomplished: and the word is not in them;
not the word of the Lord; he never spoke by them; they speak of themselves; they never were inspired or commissioned by him to say what they do: thus shall it be done unto them; the same evils they say shall befall us shall come upon them; they shall perish by the sword or famine; we have reason to believe that our predictions are as good as theirs, and will be fulfilled: or, "thus let it be done to them" F25; as they have prophesied shall be done to us; and so are an imprecation. The Targum interprets the whole of the false prophets, as if they were the words of the Lord concerning them, which is,

``but the false prophets shall be for nothing, and their false prophecy shall not be confirmed; this revenge shall be taken of them;''
and so Kimchi interprets it of the prophets that prophesied peace to them, and said that the above mentioned should not come upon them; and Jarchi takes the last clause to be the words of the prophet to them that say the above words; namely, that thus it shall be done to them, what the Lord has said.

Jeremias 5:13 In-Context

11 Porque aleivosissimamente se houveram contra mim a casa de Israel e a casa de Judá, diz o Senhor.
12 Negaram ao Senhor, e disseram: Não é ele; nenhum mal nos sobrevirá; nem veremos espada nem fome.
13 E até os profetas se farão como vento, e a palavra não está com eles; assim se lhes fará.
14 Portanto assim diz o Senhor, o Deus dos exércitos: Porquanto proferis tal palavra, eis que converterei em fogo as minhas palavras na tua boca, e este povo em lenha, de modo que o fogo o consumirá.
15 Eis que trago sobre vós uma nação de longe, ó casa de Israel, diz o Senhor; é uma nação durável, uma nação antiga, uma nação cuja língua ignoras, e não entenderás o que ela falar.
