And first I will recompense their iniquity and their sin double; because they have defiled my land, they have filled mine inheritance with the carcases of their detestable and abominable things.

The verse 18 is found in chapter 16 of Jeremiah. The future deliverance of Israel’s descendants will be so significant that it will be compared with the exodus, although it will come from many countries. Fishing and hunting symbolize the reach of judgment upon those who hide from God. The chapter concludes with a future confession by the nations: they will know that Yahweh is God.

Aber zuvor will ich ihre Missetat und Sünde zwiefach bezahlen, darum daß sie mein Land mit den Leichen ihrer Abgötterei verunreinigt und mein Erbe mit Greueln angefüllt haben.
Mas primero pagaré al doble su iniquidad y su pecado; porque contaminaron mi tierra con los cuerpos muertos de sus abominaciones, y de sus abominaciones llenaron mi heredad.
Primero les pagaré el doble por su culpa y su pecado, porque han contaminado mi tierra con los cadáveres de sus ídolos detestables y han llenado mi heredad de sus abominaciones».
Je leur donnerai d'abord le double salaire de leur iniquité et de leur péché, Parce qu'ils ont profané mon pays, Parce qu'ils ont rempli mon héritage Des cadavres de leurs idoles et de leurs abominations.
E imprima renderò loro al doppio la retribuzione della loro iniquità, e del lor peccato; perciocchè han contaminato il mio paese ed hanno empiuta la mia eredità dei carcami delle lor cose esecrabili, e delle loro abbominazioni.
E primeiramente pagarei em dobro a sua maldade e o seu pecado, porque profanaram a minha terra com os cadáveres das suas coisas detestáveis, e das suas abominações encheram a minha herança.
我要先加倍報應他們的罪孽和罪惡,因為他們以可憎之偶像的屍首使我的地玷污,使我的產業充斥可厭之物。」
