Jeremia 3:25

Lutherbibel

Denn worauf wir uns verließen, das ist uns jetzt eitel Schande, und wessen wir uns trösteten, des müssen wir uns jetzt schämen. Denn wir sündigten damit wider den HERRN, unsern Gott, beide, wir und unsre Väter, von unsrer Jugend auf, auch bis auf diesen heutigen Tag, und gehorchten nicht der Stimme des HERRN, unsers Gottes.

Parallel Translations

Schlachter Bibel (1951)
wir müssen uns niederlegen in unserer Schande, und unsere Schmach will uns zudecken; denn wir haben am Herrn , unserm Gott, gesündigt, wir und unsere Väter, von unserer Jugend an bis auf diesen Tag, und haben nicht gehört auf die Stimme des Herrn , unseres Gottes."

Gill's Notes on the Bible

We lie down in our shame, and our confusion covereth us,.... As persons overwhelmed with a sense of sin, and so pressed with the guilt of it on their consciences, that they can neither stand up, nor look up, but throw themselves on the ground, and cover their faces, being ashamed of what they have done:

for we have sinned against the Lord our God; as by breaking the law of God, so by despising the Gospel; rejecting the ordinances of it; disbelieving the Messiah, and speaking reproachfully of him and his people:

we and our fathers, from our youth even unto this day; in a long series of years, from the time that Christ was upon earth, to the day of their conversion, in the latter times of the Gospel dispensation:

and have not obeyed the voice of the Lord our God; the voice of his forerunner, John the Baptist, of the Messiah himself, and of his apostles, and of his ministers, since; so the Targum,

"and have not obeyed the Word of the Lord our God.''

Christ the essential Word.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

We lie down ... - Or, We will lie down: we are ready to throw ourselves upon the ground in bitter humiliation.

Covereth - literally, shall cover us. We will hide our face from others.
