Terdengarlah suatu berita, bunyinya: Kegemparan besar akan datang dari tanah sebelah utara, untuk membuat kota-kota Yehuda menjadi sunyi sepi, menjadi tempat persembunyian serigala-serigala.
Bahwasanya, adalah datang bunyi kabar dan kegentaran besar dari negeri yang pada sebelah utara! Sebentar lagi maka segala negeri Yehuda ditaruh bagi kerusakan dan bagi tempat kediaman ular naga.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Behold the noise of the bruit is come,.... Or, "the voice of hearing" c; that is, the voice heard; the report that was made that the king of Babylon had invaded the land, and was coming up to besiege Jerusalem: "and a great commotion out of the north country"; a large army from Babylon, which lay north of Judea, which came with great noise, and caused a great trembling and shaking among the inhabitants of the land whither they were coming:
to make the cities of Judah desolate, and a den of dragons; this shows that the whole paragraph is to be understood of the Jewish nation, and of their destruction. :-.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The lamentation of the daughter of Zion, the Jewish Church, at the devastation of the land, and her humble prayer to God for mercy.
Jeremiah 10:19
Grievous - Rather, “mortal,” i. e., fatal, incurable.
A grief - Or, “my grief.”
Jeremiah 10:20
tabernacle - i. e., “tent.” Jerusalem laments that her tent is plundered and her children carried into exile, and so “are not,” are dead Matthew 2:18, either absolutely, or dead to her in the remote land of their captivity. They can aid the widowed mother no longer in pitching her tent, or in hanging up the curtains round about it.
Jeremiah 10:21
Therefore they shall not prosper - Rather, “therefore they have not governed wisely.” “The pastors,” i. e., the kings and rulers Jeremiah 2:8, having sunk to the condition of barbarous and untutored men, could not govern wisely.
Jeremiah 10:22
The “great commotion” is the confused noise of the army on its march (see Jeremiah 8:16).
Dragons - i. e., jackals; see the marginal reference.
Jeremiah 10:23
At the rumour of the enemy’s approach Jeremiah utters in the name of the nation a supplication appropriate to men overtaken by the divine justice.
Jeremiah 10:24
With judgment - In Jeremiah 30:11; Jeremiah 46:28, the word “judgment” (with a different preposition) is rendered “in measure.” The contrast therefore is between punishment inflicted in anger, and that inflicted as a duty of justice, of which the object is the criminal’s reformation. Jeremiah prays that God would punish Jacob so far only as would bring him to true repentance, but that he would pour forth his anger upon the pagan, as upon that which opposes itself to God Jeremiah 10:25.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Jeremiah 10:22. The noise of the bruit is come — How this silly French word bruit, which signifies noise, got in here, I cannot imagine. The simple translation is this: "The voice of the report! behold, it is come; yea, great commotion from the land of the north; (Chaldea;) to make the cities of Judea a desolation, a habitation of wild beasts." That is, the report we had heard of the projected invasion of Judea by Nebuchadnezzar is confirmed. He has entered the land; the Chaldeans are at the doors, and the total desolation of Judea is their sole object.
