Listen to Geremia 26:11
11 E i sacerdoti, e i profeti parlarono a’ principi di Giuda, ed a tutto il popolo, dicendo: Quest’uomo deve esser giudicato a morte; perciocchè ha profetizzato contro a questa città, come voi avete udito co’ vostri propri orecchi.

Geremia 26:11 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 26:11

Then spake the priests and the prophets unto the princes, and
to all the people
The priests and the prophets they were the accusers; the princes were the court before whom the cause was brought; and the people were the hearers of it; though it does not seem as if they were a sort of jury, or had any vote in determining; though they sometimes had in instigating a court, and the judges of it, to take on the side of the question they were for: saying, this man [is] worthy to die;
or, "the judgment of death [is] to this man" F6; he is guilty of a capital crime, and judgment ought to be given against him, and he condemned to die: for he hath prophesied against this city;
the city of Jerusalem; saying that it should be a curse to other nations; or, as they interpreted it, that it should be utterly destroyed, and become desolate, and none should inhabit it: as ye have heard with your ears;
this must be directed to the people only; for the princes did not hear Jeremiah's prophecy.

Geremia 26:11 In-Context

9 Perchè hai tu profetizzato in Nome del Signore, dicendo: Questa Casa sarà come Silo, e questa città sarà deserta, senza abitatori? E tutto il popolo si adunò appresso di Geremia nella Casa del Signore.
10 E i principi di Giuda, avendo intese queste cose, salirono dalla casa del re alla Casa del Signore, e sedettero all’entrata della porta nuova della Casa del Signore.
11 E i sacerdoti, e i profeti parlarono a’ principi di Giuda, ed a tutto il popolo, dicendo: Quest’uomo deve esser giudicato a morte; perciocchè ha profetizzato contro a questa città, come voi avete udito co’ vostri propri orecchi.
12 E Geremia parlò a tutti i principi, ed a tutto il popolo, dicendo: Il Signore mi ha mandato per profetizzare contro a questa Casa, e contro a questa città, tutte le parole che voi avete udite.
13 Ora dunque, ammendate le vostre vie, e i vostri fatti, ed ubbidite alla voce del Signore Iddio vostro; e il Signore si pentirà del male ch’egli ha pronunziato contro a voi.
