THE MESSAGE
Jeremiah 5:18
"Even then, as bad as it will be"— God 's Decree!—"it will not be the end of the world for you. And when people ask, ‘Why did our God do all this to us?' you must say to them, ‘It's tit for tat. Just as you left me and served foreign gods in your own country, so now you must serve foreigners in their own country.'

Contextual Overview
10"Go down the rows of vineyards and rip out the vines, but not all of them. Leave a few. Prune back those vines! That growth didn't come from God ! They've betrayed me over and over again, Judah and Israel both." God 's Decree. 12"They've spread lies about God . They've said, ‘There's nothing to him. Nothing bad will happen to us, neither famine nor war will come our way. The prophets are all windbags. They speak nothing but nonsense.'" 14 Therefore, this is what God said to me, God -of-the-Angel-Armies: "Because they have talked this way, they are going to eat those words. Watch now! I'm putting my words as fire in your mouth. And the people are a pile of kindling ready to go up in flames. 15"Attention! I'm bringing a far-off nation against you, O house of Israel." God 's Decree. "A solid nation, an ancient nation, A nation that speaks another language. You won't understand a word they say. When they aim their arrows, you're as good as dead. They're a nation of real fighters! They'll clean you out of house and home, rob you of crops and children alike. They'll feast on your sheep and cattle, strip your vines and fig trees. And the fortresses that made you feel so safe— leveled with a stroke of the sword! 18"Even then, as bad as it will be"— God 's Decree!—"it will not be the end of the world for you. And when people ask, ‘Why did our God do all this to us?' you must say to them, ‘It's tit for tat. Just as you left me and served foreign gods in your own country, so now you must serve foreigners in their own country.'

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Nevertheless, in those days,.... When these things should be done by the king of Babylon and his army:
saith the Lord, I will not make a full end with you: this was to be done at another time, not now; :-,
:-, though some think that this is a threatening of more and greater calamities; that this would not be all he would do to them; he had not yet done; he had other evils and calamities, to bring upon them, particularly a long captivity.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Jeremiah 5:18. I will not make a full end — There are more evils in store for you. You shall not only be spoiled, and all your property destroyed, but ye shall be carried into captivity; and ye shall serve strangers in a land that is not yours, Jeremiah 5:19.
