Jeremías 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.''

Jeremías 8:18 In-Context

16 Desde Dan se oyó el bufido de sus caballos; del sonido de los relinchos de sus fuertes tembló toda la tierra; y vinieron y devoraron la tierra y su abundancia, ciudad y moradores de ella.
17 Porque he aquí que yo envío sobre vosotros serpientes, basiliscos, contra los cuales no hay encantamiento; y os morderán, dijo el SEÑOR.
18 A causa de mi fuerte dolor, mi corazón desfallece en mí.
19 He aquí voz del clamor de la hija de mi pueblo, que viene de la tierra lejana: ¿No está el SEÑOR en Sion? ¿No está en ella su Rey? ¿Por qué me hicieron airar con sus imágenes de talla, con vanidades de dios ajeno?
20 Se pasó la siega, se acabó el verano, y nosotros no hemos sido salvos.
