Jeremiah 50:36
false prophets <0907> [upon the liars. or, upon the chief stays. Heb. bars.]
fools <02973> [dote.]
soldiers <01368> [her mighty.]
Jeremiah 48:30
know <03045> [know.]
boastings ... prove <06213 0907> [his lies shall not so effect it. or, those on whom he stayeth (Heb. his bars) do not right.]
