Jeremiah 4:21

Context

4:21 “How long must I see the enemy’s battle flags

and hear the military signals of their bugles?” 1 

Jeremiah 17:17

Context

17:17 Do not cause me dismay! 2 

You are my source of safety in times of trouble.

Jeremiah 19:10

Context

19:10 The Lord continued, 3  “Now break the jar in front of those who have come here with you.

1 tn Heb “the sound of ram’s horns,” but the modern equivalent is “bugles” and is more readily understandable.

2 tn Heb “do not be a source of dismay for me.” For this nuance of מְחִתָּה (mÿkhittah) rather than “terror” as many of the English versions have it see BDB 370 s.v. מְחִתָּה 1.b and the usage in Prov 21:15. Compare also the usage of the related verb which occurs in the next verse (see also BDB 369 s.v. חָתַת Qal.2).

3 tn The words “And the Lord continued” are not in the text. However, they are necessary to take us clearly back to the flow of the narrative begun in vv. 1-2 and interrupted by the long speech in vv. 3-9.
