Jeremias 14:12

12 Sa diha nga sila managpuasa, ako dili magpatalinghug sa ilang pagtu-aw; ug sa diha nga sila mohatag ug halad-nga-sinunog ug halad-nga-kalan-on, ako dili modawat kanila: apan sila pagaut-uton ko pinaagi sa espada, ug pinaagi sa gutom, ug pinaagi sa kamatay.

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.
