Jer 21:13 | MHM | STEP | v. 13–14 : God warns Jerusalem not to trust in its strong position. The city is surrounded by valleys and mountains, making it hard to attack. The people feel safe and say, Who shall come down against us? (Jeremiah 21:13 ). But God says, Behold, I am against you . No walls or mountains can protect them if God is their enemy. He will punish them according to their actions, and His anger will be like a fire that cannot be stopped (Jeremiah 21:14 ). God is a consuming fire, and no one can stand against Him when He is angry. Their only hope is to turn back to Him and do what is right.
