Jeremias 13:11

Listen to Jeremias 13:11
11 Assim como um cinto se apega à cintura de um homem, da mesma forma fiz com que toda a comunidade de Israel e toda a comunidade de Judá se apegasse a mim, para que fosse o meu povo para o meu renome, louvor e honra. Mas eles não me ouviram”, declara o SENHOR.

Jeremias 13:11 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 13:11

For as the girdle cleaveth to the loins of a man
Being girt tight unto him: so have I caused to cleave unto me the whole house of Israel, and the
whole house of Judah;
whom he chose above all people, and caused to approach unto him, and dwell in his courts; whom he favoured with his presence, and encouraged them to follow after him, and cleave to him in faith and affection, and with full purpose of heart; so that they were a people near unto him as a man's girdle is to his loins: and the end of this was, and would have been, had they continued so, that they might be unto me for a people;
his own people, a special and peculiar people above all others, peculiarly favoured and blessed by him, and continue so, and in the enjoyment of all good things: and for a name, and for a praise, and for a glory;
for a famous and renowned people, that should be to the praise and glory of God, and an honour to him, and an ornament to the profession of him; whereas they were the reverse: but they would not hear;
the words of the Lord, nor obey his voice; but served other gods, departed from the Lord, to whom they should have cleaved, and so became like this rotten girdle.

Jeremias 13:11 In-Context

9 “Assim diz o SENHOR: Do mesmo modo tambĂ©m arruinarei o orgulho de JudĂĄ e o orgulho desmedido de JerusalĂ©m.
10 Este povo Ă­mpio, que se recusa a ouvir as minhas palavras, que age segundo a dureza de seus coraçÔes, seguindo outros deuses para prestar-lhes culto e adorĂĄ-los, que este povo seja como aquele cinto: completamente inĂștil!
11 Assim como um cinto se apega à cintura de um homem, da mesma forma fiz com que toda a comunidade de Israel e toda a comunidade de Judá se apegasse a mim, para que fosse o meu povo para o meu renome, louvor e honra. Mas eles não me ouviram”, declara o SENHOR.
12 “Diga-lhes tambĂ©m: Assim diz o SENHOR, o Deus de Israel: Deve-se encher de vinho toda vasilha de couro. E, se eles disserem a vocĂȘ: ‘SerĂĄ que nĂŁo sabemos que se deve encher de vinho toda vasilha de couro?’
13 EntĂŁo vocĂȘ lhes dirĂĄ: Assim diz o SENHOR: Farei com que fiquem totalmente embriagados todos os habitantes desta terra, bem como os reis que se assentam no trono de Davi, os sacerdotes, os profetas e todos os habitantes de JerusalĂ©m.
