German Elber 1905 (Darby Unrevidierte Elberfelder)
Deine Bosheit züchtigt dich und deine Abtrünnigkeiten strafen dich; so erkenne und sieh, daß es schlimm und bitter ist, daß du Jahwe, deinen Gott, verlässest, und daß meine Furcht nicht bei dir ist, spricht der Herr, Jahwe der Heerscharen.
Was bedeutet das?
Jeremiah 2:19 says that God will correct you because of your own wickedness and backslidings. God is speaking here, and the key message is that forsaking Him leads to bitter consequences.
Für Kinder erklärt
Imagine you have a best friend who always takes care of you, but you decide to ignore them and do bad things. Your friend will let you face the consequences of your actions. That's what God is saying here.
Historischer Hintergrund
Jeremiah, the prophet, wrote this verse around 627-585 BCE. He was addressing the people of Israel who had turned away from God, and he warned them of the consequences of their actions.
