Raw Blame History

So look!

"Listen!" or "Pay attention to the important thing I am going to tell you!"

I am about to proclaim freedom to you ... freedom for the sword, the plague, and famine

"I will proclaim misery to you ... misery from the sword, the plague, and famine". Jeremiah uses irony to say the "freedom" the people will enjoy will actually be suffering.

proclaim freedom to you

"proclaim that you are free"

sword

"enemy soldiers to kill you"

am going to make you a terrifying thing in the sight of every kingdom on earth

"I am going to terrify the people in every kingdom on earth by what I do to you"
