Why do we sit still? assemble yourselves, and let us enter into the defenced cities, and let us be silent there: for the LORD our God hath put us to silence, and given us water of gall to drink, because we have sinned against the LORD.
"¿Por qué estamos aquí sentados sin hacer nada? Reunámonos y vayamos a las ciudades fortificadas, y quedémonos callados allí. El SEÑOR nuestro Dios nos ha silenciado y nos ha dado agua amarga y venenosa para beber porque hemos pecado contra el SEÑOR."
El pueblo reconoce que Dios los ha castigado con silencio y amargura por sus pecados.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the book of Jeremiah, the prophet is speaking to the people of Judah during a period of widespread idolatry and moral decay, as they faced the threat of invasion from Babylon due to their unfaithfulness to God. This verse reflects the people's growing awareness of God's judgment for their sins, urging them to seek refuge in fortified cities as a desperate measure. Historically, this occurs in the late 7th century BC, amid the decline of the kingdom of Judah leading to the Babylonian exile.
