Jérémie 29:18

Et je les poursuivrai avec l'épée, par la famine, et par la mortalité; et je les abandonnerai à être agités par tous les Royaumes de la terre, et pour être en exécration, en étonnement, en raillerie, et en opprobre à toutes les nations parmi lesquelles je les aurai dispersés.

La Bible Ostervald (1996)
Et je les poursuivrai par l'épée, la famine et la peste; et je les livrerai pour être agités par tous les royaumes de la terre, et pour être en malédiction, en étonnement, en moquerie et en opprobre, à toutes les nations où je les aurai chassés;
Darby's French Translation
Et je les poursuivrai avec l'épée, avec la famine, et avec la peste; et je les livrerai pour être chassés çà et là par tous les royaumes de la terre, -et à l'exécration, et à la désolation, et au sifflement, et à l'opprobre, dans toutes les nations où je les chasserai;

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And I will persecute them with the sword, with the famine,

and with the pestilence,.... Or, "follow after a them"; such as should make their escape out of the city, and go into Egypt, or other countries, for shelter and safety, should be pursued by the vengeance of God, and should fall by sword, famine, or pestilence, in other places:

and will deliver them; such as should not perish by the above mentioned calamities:

to be removed to all the kingdoms of the earth; where they should be scattered, and live in exile: or "for a shaking to all the kingdoms of the earth" b; who should shake and tremble at such a dreadful spectacle of vengeance; or rather they should shake and tremble at the wrath of God upon them; or else their enemies, among whom they should be, should shake their heads at them, by way of insult and triumph over them:

to be a curse, and an astonishment, and an hissing, and a reproach,

among all the nations whither I have driven them; where men shall look at them with amazement, and curse theft, and hiss at them, and reproach them, as the offscouring of the world.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

These verses are not in the Septuagint. But the text of the Septuagint is here throughout so brief and confused as to be explicable only on the supposition, that it represents what was left behind in Egypt when Jeremiah died, copied probably with extreme haste, and with no opportunity of careful collation afterward. On the other hand the Hebrew text represents no hurried transcript, but the original manuscript, and is especially trustworthy in the case of these letters sent to Babylon (see also Jeremiah 51:0), because the originals of them would be available for collation with the text preserved by Jeremiah himself. The verses were probably intended to allay excitement in Babylon consequent upon the knowledge that the representatives of various kings were assembled at that very time at Jerusalem to form a coalition against Babylon Jeremiah 27:3.

Jeremiah 29:17

Vile - The word does not occur elsewhere, but comes from a root signifying to shudder, and thus has an intense meaning.
