Para pembinasa telah datang melintasi segala bukit gundul di padang gurun; sebab pedang TUHAN mengamuk makan dari ujung negeri yang satu ke ujung lain; tidak ada damai bagi segala yang hidup.
Sampai kepada segala bukit yang di padang belantara sudah datang penyamun, karena pedang Tuhan makan habis semuanya, dari pada ujung tanah sampai kepada ujungnya tiadalah hal sentosa, bagi seorang juapun tidak.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
The spoilers are come upon all high places through the wilderness,.... Of Judea; or which lay between Chaldea and Judea, through which the Chaldean army came; called here the "spoilers", because they spoiled and plundered all places where they came; nor could the high, strong, and fortified places withstand them, or escape their ravage and fury. De Dieu renders it, "upon all the plains in the wilderness"; where was pasture, land for cattle, as Kimchi serves; which were trodden down and spoiled by the soldiers, and made forage of.
For the sword of the Lord shall devour from the one end; of the land even the other end of the land; the sword of the Chaldeans is called the sword of the Lord, because it was drawn by his order and appointment, and was succeeded by him to do execution; and the calamity which it brought upon the land reached from one end of it to the other, so general and; extensive it was.
No flesh shall have peace; no inhabitant of Judea shall be in safety, but be exposed to the sword, or to captivity.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Through - in. Even these remote scaurs do not escape, polluted as they had been by the nation’s idolatries.
Shall devour - Or, devoureth. These hosts of war come as Yahweh’s sword.
No flesh shall have peace - “Flesh” in Genesis 6:3 means mankind as sinners; here, Judah. “Peace” in Hebrew has the wider signification of “welfare, happiness.” Hence, their salutation in life was, “Peace be to thee,” and in death “In Peace” was engraved upon their sepulchres.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Jeremiah 12:12. The sword of the Lord shall devour — It is the sword of the Lord that has devoured, and will devour: this is what no man layeth to heart. They think these things come in the course of events.
