Jérémie 8:21 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 8:21

For the hurt of the daughter of my people am I hurt
These are the words, not of God, as Jerom; nor of Jerusalem, as the Targum; but of the prophet, as Kimchi observes, expressing his sympathy with the people in their affliction: and they may be rendered, "for the breach of the daughter of my people" F15, which was made when the city was broken up and destroyed, ( Jeremiah 52:7 ) . I am broken;
in heart and spirit: I am black;
with grief and sorrow. The Targum is,

``my face is covered with blackness, black as a pot.''
Astonishment hath taken hold on me; at the miseries that were come upon his people; and there was no remedy for them, which occasion the following words.

Jérémie 8:21 In-Context

19 Voici la voix de la fille de mon peuple, qui crie d'un pays éloigné: L'Éternel n'est-il plus dans Sion? Son roi n'est-il plus au milieu d'elle? Pourquoi m'ont-ils irrité par leurs images taillées, par les vanités de l'étranger?
20 La moisson est passée, l'été a pris fin, et nous ne sommes pas délivrés!
21 Je suis blessé de la blessure de la fille de mon peuple; j'en suis en deuil, la désolation m'en a saisi.
22 N'y a-t-il point de baume en Galaad? N'y a-t-il point de médecin? Pourquoi donc la plaie de la fille de mon peuple n'est-elle pas consolidée?
