Jeremiah 23:24

23:24 “Do you really think anyone can hide himself

where I cannot see him?” the Lord asks. ¹ 

“Do you not know that I am everywhere?” ² 

the Lord asks. ³ 

[23:24]  ¹ tn Heb “Oracle of the Lord.”

[23:24]  ² tn The words “Don’t you know” are not in the text. They are a way of conveying the idea that the question which reads literally “Do I not fill heaven and earth?” expects a positive answer. They follow the pattern used at the beginning of the previous two questions and continue that thought. The words are supplied in the translation for clarity.

[23:24]  ³ tn Heb “Oracle of the Lord.”
