Jer 29:32 | NET2full | STEP | Because he has done this ,” the Lord says , “I will punish Shemaiah the Nehelamite and his whole family . There will not be any of them left to experience the good things that I will do for my people . I, the Lord , affirm it! For he counseled rebellion against the Lord .”’”

‏ Jeremiah 29:32

32 Because he has done this,” ^{▼▼tn Heb “Therefore.”} the Lord says, “I will punish Shemaiah the Nehelamite and his whole family. There will not be any of them left to experience the good things that I will do for my people. I, the Lord, affirm it! For he counseled rebellion against the Lord.”’” ^{▼▼sn Compare the same charge against Hananiah in Jer 28:16 and see the note there. In this case, the false prophecy of Shemaiah is not given, but it likely had the same tenor, since he wants Jeremiah reprimanded for saying that the exile will be long and the people are to settle down in Babylon.}
