Berkatalah mereka kepada Yeremia: "Biarlah TUHAN menjadi saksi yang benar dan yang dapat dipercaya terhadap kami, jika kami tidak berbuat menurut segala firman yang disuruh TUHAN, Allahmu, kausampaikan kepada kami.
Maka kata mereka itu kepada Yermia: Bahwa Tuhan juga pada kami akan saksi yang benar dan setia, jikalau kiranya tiada kami membuat seperti segala firman yang disampaikan Tuhan kelak kepadamu akan hal kami.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Then they said to Jeremiah, the Lord be a true and faithful witness between us,.... Which is the form of an oath; a solemn appeal to God, as a witness to what they were about to say, and to the sincerity of their hearts in it; who is true to his word, and faithful to his promises and threatenings; and who bears a true and faithful testimony, and will do what is just and right; and yet these people never intended to perform what they promised; which is a most shocking piece of atheism in a professing people; and who, at this very time, could not but observe the judgments of God upon their nation, city, and temple:
if we do not even according to all things for the which the Lord thy God shall send thee to us; they promise to do everything the Lord should signify by the prophet as his will; and, if they did not, wish the severest judgments of God might fall upon them.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Between us - Against us, as in Jeremiah 42:19 (margin.)
According to all things - literally, “according to the whole word as to which Yahweh thy God shall send thee to us.”
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Jeremiah 42:5. The Lord be a true and faithful Witness — The Lord is such; and as ye have bound yourselves to obey his voice, he will register the covenant, and bless or curse according as ye shall conduct yourselves in this matter.
