Jeremiah 5:20

5:20 “Proclaim 1  this message among the descendants of Jacob. 2 

Make it known throughout Judah.

Jeremiah 29:27

29:27 You should have reprimanded Jeremiah from Anathoth who is pretending to be a prophet among you! 3 

1 sn The verbs are second plural here. Jeremiah, speaking for the Lord, addresses his people, calling on them to make the message further known.

2 tn Heb “in the house of Jacob.”

3 tn Heb “So why have you not reprimanded Jeremiah…?” The rhetorical question functions as an emphatic assertion made explicit in the translation.
