Jeremiah 14:17 in Context — Jeremiah 14

15 Portanto assim diz o SENHOR quanto aos profetas que profetizam em meu nome, sem que eu tenha lhes enviado, que dizem “não haverá nem espada nem fome nesta terra”: Com espada e com fome tais profetas serão consumidos;

16 E o povo a quem eles profetizam será lançado fora nas ruas de Jerusalém, por causa da fome e da espada; e não haverá quem os enterre, eles, suas mulheres, seus filhos, e suas filhas; e sobre eles derramarei sua maldade.

17 Portanto tu lhes dirás esta palavra: Corram meus olhos em lágrimas noite e dia, e não cessem; porque a virgem filha de meu povo está quebrada de grande quebrantamento, [de] praga muito dolorosa.

18 Se saio ao campo, eis os mortos a espada; e se entro na cidade, eis os doentes de fome; e até os profetas e os sacerdotes andam rodeando na terra, e nada sabem.

19 Rejeitaste a Judá por completo? Tua alma detesta a Sião? Por que nos feriste [de modo] que não haja cura para nós? Esperávamos paz, mas nada há de bom; [esperávamos] tempo de cura, e eis o terror!
