Jeremias 8:18 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 8:18

When I would comfort myself against terror
Either naturally, by eating and drinking, the necessary and lawful means of refreshment; or spiritually, by reading the word of God, and looking over the promises in it: my heart is faint in me;
at the consideration of the calamities which were coming upon his people, and which were made known to him by a spirit of prophecy, of which he had no room to doubt. So the Targum takes them to be the words of the prophet, paraphrasing them,

``for them, saith the prophet, my heart grieves.''

Jeremias 8:18 In-Context

16 O resfolegar dos seus cavalospode-se ouvir desde Dã;ao relinchar dos seus garanhõesa terra toda treme.Vieram para devorar esta terrae tudo o que nela existe,a cidade e todos os que nela habitam.
17 “Vejam, estou enviando contra vocês serpentes venenosas,que ninguém consegue encantar;elas morderão vocês, e não haverá remédio”,diz o SENHOR.
18 A tristeza tomou conta de mim;o meu coração desfalece.
19 Ouça o grito de socorro da minha filha, do meu povo,grito que se estende por toda esta terra:“O SENHOR não está em Sião?Não se acha mais ali o seu rei?”“Por que eles me provocaram à ira com os seus ídolos,com os seus inúteis deuses estrangeiros?”
20 Passou a época da colheita,acabou o verão,e não estamos salvos.
