# General Information:

God gives Jeremiah a message about Babylon. See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/writing-poetry]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-parallelism]]

# This is the word that Yahweh declared

This idiom is used to introduce a special message from God. Alternate translation: "This is the message that Yahweh gave" or "This is the message that Yahweh spoke" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-idiom]])

# by the hand of Jeremiah the prophet

The hand is a synecdoche for the person. See how you translated this in [Jeremiah 37:2](../37/02.md). Alternate translation: "through Jeremiah, who was a prophet" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-synecdoche]])
