Yeremia 5:6
Konteks5:6 So like a lion from the thicket their enemies will kill them.
Like a wolf from the desert they will destroy them.
Like a leopard they will lie in wait outside their cities
and totally destroy anyone who ventures out. 1
For they have rebelled so much
and done so many unfaithful things. 2
Yeremia 6:15
Konteks6:15 Are they ashamed because they have done such shameful things?
No, they are not at all ashamed.
They do not even know how to blush!
So they will die, just like others have died. 3
They will be brought to ruin when I punish them,”
says the Lord.

[5:6] 1 tn Heb “So a lion from the thicket will kill them. A wolf from the desert will destroy them. A leopard will watch outside their cities. Anyone who goes out from them will be torn in pieces.” However, it is unlikely that, in the context of judgment that Jeremiah has previously been describing, literal lions are meant. The animals are metaphorical for their enemies. Compare Jer 4:7.
[5:6] 2 tn Heb “their rebellions are so many and their unfaithful acts so numerous.”
