Jeremiah 7:8

7:8 “‘But just look at you! 1  You are putting your confidence in a false belief 2  that will not deliver you. 3 

Jeremiah 7:15

7:15 And I will drive you out of my sight just like I drove out your relatives, the people of Israel.’” 4 

1 tn Heb “Behold!”

2 tn Heb “You are trusting in lying words.” See the similar phrase in v. 4 and the note there.

3 tn Heb “not profit [you].”

4 tn Heb “the descendants of Ephraim.” However, Ephraim here stands (as it often does) for all the northern tribes of Israel.
