You are my source of safety in times of trouble.

Jeremiah 48:39

Context

Oh, how her people will wail!

a terrifying sight to all the nations that surround her.”

[17:17]  1 tn Heb “do not be a source of dismay for me.” For this nuance of מְחִתָּה (mÿkhittah) rather than “terror” as many of the English versions have it see BDB 370 s.v. מְחִתָּה 1.b and the usage in Prov 21:15. Compare also the usage of the related verb which occurs in the next verse (see also BDB 369 s.v. חָתַת Qal.2).

[48:39]  2 tn Heb “turn her back.”
