Jeremías 38:18 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 38:18

But if thou wilt not go forth to the king of Babylon's
princes
And surrender to them: then shall this city be given into the hands of the Chaldeans;
if not willingly delivered up by the king of Judah, it shall be forcibly taken by the king of Babylon's army, through the permission of God; with respect to whom it is said to be given unto them, even by him who has the disposing of cities and kingdoms: and they shall burn it with fire;
as it had been often foretold it should, and as it accordingly was, ( Jeremiah 39:8 ) ; and thou shalt not escape out of their hand;
though he might hope he should, and would attempt to do it, yet should be taken; and though he should not be slain, yet should never regain his liberty, or get out of their hands, when once in them; see ( Jeremiah 52:7-9 Jeremiah 52:11 ) .

Jeremías 38:18 In-Context

16 Y juró el rey Sedequías en secreto a Jeremías, diciendo: Vive el SEÑOR que nos hizo esta alma, que no te mataré, ni te entregaré en mano de estos varones que buscan tu alma.
17 Entonces dijo Jeremías a Sedequías: Así dijo el SEÑOR Dios de los ejércitos, Dios de Israel: Si salieres luego a los príncipes del rey de Babilonia, tu alma vivirá, y esta ciudad no será puesta a fuego; y vivirás tú y tu casa;
18 mas si no salieres a los príncipes del rey de Babilonia, esta ciudad será entregada en mano de los caldeos, y la pondrán a fuego, y tú no escaparás de sus manos.
19 Y dijo el rey Sedequías a Jeremías: Me temo a causa de los judíos que se han adherido a los caldeos, que no me entreguen en sus manos y me escarnezcan.
20 Y dijo Jeremías: No te entregarán. Oye ahora la voz del SEÑOR que yo te hablo, y tendrás bien, y vivirá tu alma.
