Jeremías 14:9 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 14:9

Why shouldest thou be as a man astonied
Astonished, and so surprised as not to know what to say or do; or "asleep", as the Septuagint; taking no notice of us, and being altogether unconcerned what becomes of us; or, as one "dumb" F9; that will give no answer to our prayers: as a mighty man that cannot save?
who, though he is able to save, yet, through want of a heart or will, does not exert his power: yet thou, O Lord, art in the midst of us;
having his residence and dwelling in the temple at Jerusalem; and therefore was not a stranger and foreigner among them; and this carries in it an entreaty and an argument that he would not in his providence conduct towards them in such manner as though he was: and we are called by thy name;
the people of God, the Israel of God, and the like: leave us not;
in our distress and trouble, but deliver us out of it.

Jeremías 14:9 In-Context

7 Aunque nuestras iniquidades testifican contra nosotros, oh SEÑOR, obra por amor de tu nombre. En verdad han sido muchas nuestras apostasías, contra ti hemos pecado.
8 Tú, esperanza de Israel, Salvador suyo en tiempo de angustia, ¿por qué has de ser como forastero en la tierra, o como caminante que ha plantado su tienda para pasar la noche?
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.
