Jeremiah 25:14
| For they have served them, whereas they were many nations, and great kings: and I will repay them according to their deeds, and according to the works of their hands.
| Kings. They perfidiously joined the Chaldeans, after making a league with Sedecias, Jeremias 27:3. This is condemned, (Calmet) and not precisely their submitting to Nabuchodonosor, Jeremias 28:8. Their league with Juda was indeed wrong; but the infringement of it was another crime. Septuagint is here much transposed almost to the end. See Grabe. (Haydock) --- Jeremias had prophesied against the nations, though his words are given, Jeremias 46.
