Jeremiah 6:11

Therefore I am full of the fury of the LORD; I am weary with holding in: I will pour it out upon the children abroad, and upon the assembly of young men together: for even the husband with the wife shall be taken, the aged with [him that is] full of days.

Ver. 11. Therefore I am full of the fury of the Lord,] i.e., Of curses and menaces against this obstinate people. as Jer 4:19

I am weary with holding in.] As hitherto I have done, and could still in compassion, but that of necessity I must obey God's will, and be the messenger of his wrath. It is a folly to think that God's ministers delight to fling daggers at men's breasts, or handfuls of hell fire in their faces. Non nisi coactus, said he.

I will pour it forth.] I will denounce it, and then God will soon effect it. See on Jeremiah 1:10 .
