Contextual Overview
10 Go through her rows [of vines], and destroy them (but don't destroy them completely): strip away her branches, they do not belong to Adonai . 11 "For the house of Isra'el and the house of Y'hudah have thoroughly betrayed me," says Adonai . 12 They have denied Adonai , they have said, "He won't do anything, calamity will not strike us, we will see neither sword nor famine. 13 The prophets are merely wind, they do not have the word; the things that they are predicting will happen only to them." 14 Therefore Adonai Elohei-Tzva'ot says: "Because you people speak this way, I will make my words fire in your mouth, [Yirmeyahu,] and this people wood; so that it will devour them. 15 I will bring on you, house of Isra'el, a distant nation," says Adonai , "an enduring nation, an ancient nation, a nation whose language you do not know — you will not understand what they are saying. 16 Their quiver is like an open grave, they are all mighty warriors. 17 They will eat up your harvest and your bread, they will eat up your sons and your daughters, they will eat up your flocks and your herds, they will eat up your vines and your fig trees; with the sword they will beat down your fortified cities, in which you trust. 18 But even in those days," says Adonai , "I will not completely destroy you. 19 And when your people ask, ‘Why has Adonai our God done all these things to us?' you are to give them this answer: ‘Just as you abandoned me and served strange gods in your own land, so likewise you will serve strangers in a land that is not your own.'

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Their quiver is an open sepulchre,.... The Chaldeans used bows and arrows in fighting; and the quiver is a case for arrows; and the phrase denotes, that their arrows would do great execution, and be very mortal; so that a quiver of them would be as devouring as an open grave, into which many dead are cast. The Septuagint and Arabic versions have not this clause; and the Syriac version renders it, "whose throats are as open sepulchres"; see Romans 3:13:
they are all mighty men; strong in body, of bold and courageous spirits, expert in war, and ever victorious; so that there was no hope of being delivered out of their hands.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Their quiver - See Jeremiah 4:29, note.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Jeremiah 5:16. Their quiver is an open sepulchre — They are such exact archers as never to miss their mark; every arrow is sure to slay one man.
