Jérémie 11:22 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 11:22

Therefore thus saith the Lord of hosts, behold, I will punish
them
. Or, visit "them" F18; look into this matter, try this cause, bring it to an issue, and pass sentence on them; which is as follows: the young men shall die by the sword;
by the sword of the Chaldeans, in the field, going out in battle against them; or rather when their town was taken and plundered, since they were the sons of priests: their sons and their daughters shall die by famine;
that is, their little ones, male and female; so that the famine, it seems, was not only in Jerusalem at the time of its siege, but in other parts also: no mention is made of the parents themselves.

Jérémie 11:22 In-Context

20 Mais l'Éternel des armées est un juste juge, qui sonde les reins et les cœurs. Tu me feras voir la vengeance que tu tireras d'eux; car je t'ai découvert ma cause.
21 C'est pourquoi, ainsi a dit l'Éternel contre les gens d'Anathoth, qui cherchent ta vie et qui disent: Ne prophétise pas au nom de l'Éternel, et tu ne mourras pas de notre main;
22 C'est pourquoi, ainsi dit l'Éternel des armées: Voici, je vais les punir; les jeunes hommes mourront par l'épée; leurs fils et leurs filles mourront par la famine.
23 Et il ne restera rien d'eux; car je ferai venir le mal sur les gens d'Anathoth, l'année de leur visitation.
