5 Y hará llevar á Sedechîas á Babilonia, y allá estará hasta que yo le visite, dice Jehová: si peleareis con los Caldeos, no os sucederá bien?

Jeremías 32:5 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 32:5

And he shall lead Zedekiah to Babylon
As he did in chains, from Riblah, where he was brought unto him after he was taken, endeavouring to make his escape, ( Jeremiah 52:8 Jeremiah 52:9 Jeremiah 52:11 ) ; and there shall he be until I visit him, saith the Lord;
in taking him away by death; for he continued in Babylon to the time of his death, which was not violent, but natural; and, considering his circumstances, his captivity, imprisonment, and loss of sight, might be reckoned a visitation in mercy: though some understand this of God's visiting the people at the return of them from their seventy years' captivity; if Zedekiah lived till then, he must be a very old man; but of this we have no account, nor is it probable: though ye fight with the Chaldeans, ye shall not prosper;
though they should sally out upon them, in order to beat them out of their trenches, and drive them from the walls of the city, yet without success.

Jeremías 32:5 In-Context

3 Pues Sedechîas rey de Judá lo había preso, diciendo: ¿Por qué profetizas tú diciendo: Así ha dicho Jehová: He aquí yo entrego esta ciudad en mano del rey de Babilonia, y tomarála,

4 Y Sedechîas rey de Judá no escapará de la mano de los Caldeos, sino que de cierto será entregado en mano del rey de Babilonia, y hablará con él boca á boca, y sus ojos verán sus ojos,

5 Y hará llevar á Sedechîas á Babilonia, y allá estará hasta que yo le visite, dice Jehová: si peleareis con los Caldeos, no os sucederá bien?

6 Y dijo Jeremías: Palabra de Jehová fué á mí, diciendo:

7 He aquí que Hanameel, hijo de Sallum tu tío, viene á ti, diciendo: Cómprame mi heredad que está en Anathoth; porque tú tienes derecho á ella para comprarla.
