Jeremiah 14:10

German TKW (Textbibel von Kautzsch und Weizsäcker)

Doch also spricht Jahwe in betreff dieses Volks: Also liebten sie umherzuschweifen, hemmten ihre Füße nicht, - Jahwe aber hatte kein Wohlgefallen an ihnen: nun gedenkt er ihrer Schuld und ahndet ihre Sünden!

Was bedeutet das?

In this verse, God is speaking to the people of Israel, expressing disappointment because they have not stopped their wandering ways and have continued to sin. God states that He will no longer accept them and will remember their past sins.

Für Kinder erklärt

Imagine if you kept forgetting to put your toys away and your parents kept reminding you but you didn't listen. One day, they might feel so disappointed that they decide to remember all the times you didn't listen and give you a consequence. That's kind of what God is saying here, but with the whole country!
