Jeremías 50:36 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 50:36

A sword [is] upon the liars
Some render it "bars" F13, as the word sometimes signifies; and interpret it of great men, who are the strength and security of cities and commonwealths; but these are mentioned both before and after. The Targum renders it "diviners"; and so Jarchi and Kimchi interpret it F14; of which there were many among the Chaldeans, who were a lying set of men, who imposed upon and deceived the people; these with their divinations and soothsayings could not save the land, nor themselves, from the devouring sword; nay, their sorceries and divinations were the cause of the ruin of it; see ( Isaiah 47:9 Isaiah 47:12 Isaiah 47:13 ) ( Revelation 18:23 ) ; and they shall dote;
or, that they may "become foolish" F15; be infatuated, and act a mad part, and be at their wits' end; not knowing what course to take for their own safety, and much less be able to give direction and advice to others: a sword [is] upon her mighty men, and they shall be dismayed;
the soldiers and their officers, the most valiant and courageous of them; these would be in the utmost fright and consternation at the approach of the enemy; especially when they perceived the city taken, and the carnage made of the king and his nobles.

Jeremías 50:36 In-Context

34 Pero el que los redime es fuerte.
Su nombre es el Señor
de los Ejércitos Celestiales.
Él los defenderá
y nuevamente les dará descanso en Israel.
¡Pero para la gente de Babilonia
no habrá descanso!
35 »La espada destructora golpeará a los babilonios
—dice el Señor
—.
Golpeará al pueblo de Babilonia,
también a sus funcionarios y a sus hombres sabios.
36 La espada golpeará a sus sabios consejeros
y se volverán necios.
La espada golpeará a sus guerreros más poderosos
y el pánico se apoderará de ellos.
37 La espada golpeará sus caballos, sus carros de guerra
y a sus aliados de otras tierras,
y todos se volverán como mujeres.
La espada golpeará sus tesoros
y todos serán saqueados.
38 La espada golpeará aun el suministro de agua
y hará que se seque.
¿Y por qué? Porque toda la tierra está llena de ídolos
y la gente está locamente enamorada de ellos.
