And they shall eat up thine harvest, and thy bread, which thy sons and thy daughters should eat: they shall eat up thy flocks and thine herds: they shall eat up thy vines and thy fig trees: they shall impoverish thy fenced cities, wherein thou trustedst, with the sword.

The verse 17 is found in chapter 5 of Jeremiah. God announces a powerful foreign nation as an instrument of discipline. However, judgment does not mean absolute destruction: it is stated that there will be no complete extermination. The chapter concludes with an accusation against priests, prophets, and rulers who have allowed corruption, showing that the crisis affects the institutions responsible for guiding the people.
