Therefore will I cast you out of this land into a land that ye know not, neither ye nor your fathers; and there shall ye serve other gods day and night; where I will not shew you favour.

The verse 13 is found in chapter 16 of Jeremiah. Jeremiah receives exceptional commands: not to marry, not to participate in mourning, and not to participate in feasts. His own life becomes a sign of the imminence of judgment. Exile will be so radical that it will alter the normal structures of family, mourning, and celebration.

Darum will ich euch aus diesem Lande stoßen in ein Land, davon weder ihr noch eure Väter gewußt haben; daselbst sollt ihr andern Göttern dienen Tag und Nacht, dieweil ich euch keine Gnade erzeigen will.
Por tanto, yo os haré echar de esta tierra a tierra que ni vosotros ni vuestros padres habéis conocido, y allá serviréis a dioses ajenos de día y de noche; porque no os mostraré clemencia.
Je vous transporterai de ce pays Dans un pays que vous n'avez point connu, Ni vous, ni vos pères; Et là, vous servirez les autres dieux jour et nuit, Car je ne vous accorderai point de grâce.
Perciò, io vi caccerò fuor di questo paese, in un paese che nè voi, nè i vostri padri, non avete conosciuto; e quivi servirete giorno e notte, ad altri dii; perciocchè io non vi farò grazia
Portanto lançar-vos-ei fora desta terra, para uma terra que não conhecestes, nem vós nem vossos pais; e ali servireis a deuses alheios de dia e de noite, porque não usarei de misericórdia convosco.
所以我必將你們從這地趕出,直趕到你們和你們祖先素不認識之地。你們在那裏晝夜必事奉別神,因為我必不再向你們施恩。』」
