Jeremiah 9:16

Context
9:16 I will scatter them among nations that neither they nor their ancestors 1  have known anything about. I will send people chasing after them with swords 2  until I have destroyed them.’” 3 

1 tn Heb “fathers.”

2 tn Heb “I will send the sword after them.” The sword here is probably not completely literal but refers to death by violent means, including death by the sword.

3 sn He will destroy them but not completely. See Jer 5:18; 30:11; 46:28.
