Jeremiah 13:26

13:26 So I will pull your skirt up over your face

and expose you to shame like a disgraced adulteress!

Jeremiah 25:37

25:37 Their peaceful dwelling places will be laid waste

by the fierce anger of the Lord.


tn Heb “over your face and your shame will be seen.” The words “like a disgraced adulteress” are not in the text but are supplied in the translation to explain the metaphor. See the notes on 13:22.

tn For this meaning of the verb used here see HALOT 217 s.v. דָּמַם Nif. Elsewhere it refers to people dying (see, e.g., Jer 49:26; 50:30) hence some see a reference to “lifeless.”

tn Heb “because of the burning anger of the Lord.”
