Jeremiah 17:20

Context
17:20 As you stand in those places 1  announce, ‘Listen, all you people who pass through these gates. Listen, all you kings of Judah, all you people of Judah and all you citizens of Jerusalem. Listen to what the Lord says. 2 

1 tn The words “As you stand there” are not in the text but are implicit in the connection. They are supplied in the translation for clarity.

2 tn Heb “Listen to the word of the Lord, kings of Judah…Jerusalem who enter through these gates.” This sentence has been restructured to avoid a long complex English sentence and to put “Listen to what the Lord says” closer to the content of what he says.
