Jeremías 32:5 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 32:5

And he shall lead Zedekiah to Babylon
As he did in chains, from Riblah, where he was brought unto him after he was taken, endeavouring to make his escape, ( Jeremiah 52:8 Jeremiah 52:9 Jeremiah 52:11 ) ; and there shall he be until I visit him, saith the Lord;
in taking him away by death; for he continued in Babylon to the time of his death, which was not violent, but natural; and, considering his circumstances, his captivity, imprisonment, and loss of sight, might be reckoned a visitation in mercy: though some understand this of God's visiting the people at the return of them from their seventy years' captivity; if Zedekiah lived till then, he must be a very old man; but of this we have no account, nor is it probable: though ye fight with the Chaldeans, ye shall not prosper;
though they should sally out upon them, in order to beat them out of their trenches, and drive them from the walls of the city, yet without success.

3 porque Sedequías, rey de Judá, lo había encerrado, diciendo: ¿Por qué profetizas, diciendo: "Así dice el SEÑOR: 'He aquí, voy a entregar esta ciudad en manos del rey de Babilonia, y él la tomará;
4 y Sedequías, rey de Judá, no escapará de la mano de los caldeos, sino que ciertamente será entregado en manos del rey de Babilonia que hablará con él cara a cara, y sus ojos verán sus ojos;
5 y él llevará a Sedequías a Babilonia, y allí estará hasta que yo lo visite'declara el SEÑOR"si peleáis contra los caldeos, no tendréis éxito'"?
6 Y Jeremías dijo: Vino a mí la palabra del SEÑOR, diciendo:
7 "He aquí, Hanameel, hijo de tu tío Salum, viene a ti, diciendo: 'Cómprate el campo que tengo en Anatot, porque tú tienes el derecho de rescate para comprarlo.'"
