Jeremías 15:6

6 Tú me dejaste, dice el SEÑOR, atrás te volviste; por tanto, yo extendí sobre ti mi mano, y te eché a perder; estoy cansado de arrepentirme

Jeremías 15:6 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 15:6

Thou hast forsaken me, saith the Lord
His worship, as the Targum; and had set up idols, and idol worship; and this was the cause of the sword, pestilence, famine, and captivity, and of all the evils that befell them: thou art gone backward;
from the law of the Lord, and from his pure worship and service, from his ways and from his ordinances; and therefore it was but just they should go into captivity; hence it follows: therefore will I stretch out mine hand against thee, and destroy thee;
his hand of power and vengeance, which when stretched out, and falls with weight, whether on particular persons, or on a nation, brings inevitable ruin and destruction with it: I am weary with repenting;
not that the Lord ever changes his mind, or the counsel of his will; in this sense he is without repentance; but the conduct of his providence, and the dispensations of it; not executing the threatenings denounced, but sparing them a little longer, showing mercy, and exercising patience and longsuffering; but now he was as one weary and tired out, and was determined to bear no longer with them, but stir up all his wrath against them, and destroy them.

Jeremías 15:6 In-Context

4 Y los entregaré para que sean zarandeados por todos los reinos de la tierra, a causa de Manasés hijo de Ezequías rey de Judá, por lo que hizo en Jerusalén

5 Porque ¿quién tendrá compasión de ti, oh Jerusalén? ¿O quién se entristecerá por tu causa? ¿O quién ha de venir a preguntar por tu paz

6 Tú me dejaste, dice el SEÑOR, atrás te volviste; por tanto, yo extendí sobre ti mi mano, y te eché a perder; estoy cansado de arrepentirme

7 Y los aventé con aventador hasta las puertas de la tierra; desahijé, desperdicié mi pueblo; no se tornaron de sus caminos

8 Sus viudas se me multiplicaron más que la arena del mar; traje contra ellos destruidor a mediodía sobre la compañía de jóvenes; hice caer sobre ella de repente ciudad de enemigos y terrores
