Contextual Overview

9 Wherfore I am constrayned, saith the Lorde, yet agayne to contende in iudgement with you, and with your childers children. 10 Go into the Isles of Cethim, and loke well: sende vnto Cedar, take diligent heede, and see whether such thynges be done there, 11 Whether the gentiles them selues haue chaunged their gods which yet are no gods in deede? but my people hath chaunged their honour for a thyng that may not helpe them. 12 Be astonished O ye heauens, be afraide and abashed at such a thyng, saith the Lorde. 13 For my people hath done two euils: they haue forsaken me the well of the water of lyfe, and digged them pittes, yea vile and broken pittes that can holde no water.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Be astonished, O ye heavens, at this,.... Meaning either the angels in heaven, or the heavens themselves, by a personification:

and be horribly afraid, be ye very desolate, saith the Lord; all which may be signified by storms and tempests, by thunder and lightning, and by the sun's withdrawing its light. This is said to aggravate the wickedness committed, as if the heavens blushed and were ashamed, and were confounded and amazed at it; and as if, on account of it, the Jews deserved not the benefit of the heavens, and the orbs in them.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Be astonished - The King James Version uses this word as equivalent “to be stupefied.”

Desolate - Or, “be dry.” In horror at Israel’s conduct the heavens shrivel and dry up.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Jeremiah 2:12. Be astonished, O ye heavens — Or, the heavens are astonished. The original will admit either sense. The conduct of this people was so altogether bad, that among all the iniquities of mankind, neither heaven nor earth had witnessed any thing so excessively sinful and profligate.
