Alkitab Terjemahan Baru
Sekalipun mereka berpuasa, Aku tidak akan mendengarkan seruan mereka; sekalipun mereka mempersembahkan korban bakaran dan korban sajian, Aku tidak akan berkenan kepada mereka, melainkan Aku akan menghabiskan mereka dengan perang, dengan kelaparan dan dengan penyakit sampar."
Alkitab Terjemahan Lama
Jikalau mereka itu berpuasa sekalipun, tiada juga Aku dengar akan tangisnya, meskipun mereka itu mempersembahkan korban bakaran dan persembahan makanan, tiada juga Aku berkenan akan mereka itu; melainkan Aku akan menghabiskan mereka itu kelak oleh pedang dan oleh lapar dan oleh bapa sampar.

Contextual Overview

10 Thus hath the Lorde sayde vnto his people, seyng they haue had such a lust to wander abrode, and haue not refrayned their feete: therfore the Lorde hath no pleasure in them, but he wyll nowe bring againe to remembraunce all their misdeedes, and punishe all their sinnes. 11 Yea euen thus sayde the Lorde vnto me: Thou shalt not pray to do this people good. 12 For though they fast, I wyll not heare their prayers, and though they offer burnt offeringes and sacrifices, yet wyll not I accept them: for I wyll destroy them with the sworde, hunger, and pestilence. 13 Then aunswered I: O Lorde God, the prophetes say vnto them, Tushe, ye shall neede to feare no sworde, and no hunger shall come vpon you: but the Lorde shall geue you sure rest in this place. 14 And the Lorde sayde vnto me, The prophetes preach lyes in my name, wheras I haue not sent them, neither gaue I them any charge, neither did I speake vnto them: yet they preache vnto you false visions, charming, vanitie, and deceiptfulnesse of their owne heart. 15 Therfore thus saith the Lorde: As for those prophetes that preache in my name, whom I neuerthelesse haue not sent, and that say, Tushe, there shall no sworde nor hunger be in this lande: with sworde and with hunger shall those prophetes perishe. 16 And the people to whom they preache shalbe cast out of Hierusalem, dye of hunger, and be slayne with the sworde, and there shalbe no man to bury them, both they, and their wiues, their sonnes, and their daughters: for thus wyll I poure their wickednesse vpon them.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

When they fast, I will not hear their cry,.... Or, "though they fast" k; very probably on account of the want of rain, and the dearth or famine, a fast was proclaimed; see Jeremiah 36:9, when they prayed and cried aloud, and made a great noise; but their prayers being hypocritical, and not arising from a pure heart, or offered up in faith and love, were not heard and accepted by the Lord:

and when they offer burnt offerings and an oblation; or a meat or bread offering, which went along with the burnt offering; thinking by those outward things to atone for their sins, without true repentance for them, or faith in the atoning sacrifice of Christ:

I will not accept them; neither their offerings, nor their persons:

but I will consume them by the sword, and by the famine, and by the pestilence; the Lord not only determines the continuance of the famine, notwithstanding the prayers of the prophet; but adds two other judgments, the sword and pestilence, by which he was resolved to consume them; and therefore it was to no purpose to pray to him on their behalf, he was inexorable.

k כי יצמו "quamvis jejunant", Gataker.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Their cry i. e - prayer offered aloud.

Oblation - A meat-offering Leviticus 2:1.

The sword, famine, and pestilence - The two latter ever follow upon the track of the first Ezekiel 5:12, and by these God will consume them, yet so as to leave a remnant. The chastisement, which crushes those who harden themselves against it, purifies the penitent.
