Jeremías 4:6

Listen to Jeremías 4:6
6 Señalen a Sión con la bandera;¡busquen refugio, no se detengan!Porque yo traigo del nortecalamidad y gran destrucción.

Jeremías 4:6 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 4:6

Set up the standard toward Zion
Not on the tower of Zion, as Kimchi interprets it; but on some high place, pointing to Zion, and directing the country people to flee thither for safety; for the setting up of the standard here is not for enlisting of soldiers in order to fight, but as a sign of danger, and a direction where to flee from it: retire;
gather yourselves together in order to flee, as the word F16 is rendered in ( Isaiah 10:31 ) , though some render it, "be ye strengthened" {q}; take heart, and play the man; but this does not seem so agreeable to the context: stay not;
or, "stand not"; stand not in the place ye are in, but move from it in all haste, because of present danger: for I will bring evil from the north;
from Babylon, as Kimchi interprets it; which lay north to the land of Israel; and so designs the captivity Judah should be brought into there: and a great destruction
or, "breach" F18; which the Babylonians should make on the inhabitants of Judea and Jerusalem.

Jeremías 4:6 In-Context

4 Habitantes de Judá y de Jerusalén,marquen su corazón con la señal del pacto:circuncídense para honrar al SEÑOR,no sea que por la maldad de sus obrasmi furor se encienda como el fuegoy arda sin que nadie pueda apagarlo.
5 »¡Anúncienlo en Judá,proclámenlo en Jerusalén!¡Toquen la trompeta por todo el país!Griten a voz en cuello:“¡Reúnanse y entremosen las ciudades fortificadas!”
6 Señalen a Sión con la bandera;¡busquen refugio, no se detengan!Porque yo traigo del nortecalamidad y gran destrucción.
7 Un león ha salido del matorral,un destructor de naciones se ha puesto en marcha;ha salido de su lugar de origenpara desolar tu tierra;tus ciudades quedarán en ruinasy totalmente despobladas.
8 Por esto, vístanse de luto,laméntense y giman,porque la ardiente ira del SEÑORno se ha apartado de nosotros.
