Jeremías 14:11 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 14:11

Then said the Lord unto me
To the prophet; now the Lord gives a more direct answer to him, and to his prayers and intercession for the people; which he forbids, saying, pray not for this people for their good;
or "for good things", as the Septuagint; for rain, that the famine might cease; and for deliverance from their enemies, that they might not go into captivity; for these things were determined upon by the Lord: he does not forbid him praying at all for them, or for their repentance and reformation; or for spiritual good things for them, for eternal life and salvation for the remnant of his own people among them; but not for external good things for the bulk of them.

Jeremías 14:11 In-Context

9 ¿Por qué has de ser como hombre desalentado, como guerrero incapaz de salvar? Sin embargo tú estás en medio nuestro, oh SEÑOR, y por tu nombre somos llamados; ¡no nos abandones!
10 Así dice el SEÑOR de este pueblo: ¡Cómo les ha gustado vagar! No han refrenado sus pies. El SEÑOR, pues, no los acepta; ahora se acordará El de su iniquidad y castigará sus pecados.
11 Y el SEÑOR me dijo: No ruegues por el bienestar de este pueblo.
12 Cuando ayunen, no escucharé su clamor; cuando ofrezcan holocausto y ofrenda de cereal, no los aceptaré; sino que con espada, con hambre y con pestilencia los destruiré.
13 Y yo dije: ¡Ah, Señor DIOS! He aquí, los profetas les dicen: "No veréis espada ni tendréis hambre, sino que os daré paz verdadera en este lugar."
