Therefore thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will lay stumblingblocks before this people, and the fathers and the sons together shall fall upon them; the neighbour and his friend shall perish.

The verse 21 is found in chapter 6 of Jeremiah. The people have lost the ability to hear the word because their hearts are closed. The phrase “peace, peace” denounces a false tranquility offered by leaders who do not want to confront the wound. The ancient paths are presented as a good way, but the community refuses to walk in them.

Darum spricht der HERR also: Siehe, ich will diesem Volk einen Anstoß in den Weg stellen, daran sich die Väter und Kinder miteinander stoßen und ein Nachbar mit dem andern umkommen sollen.
Por tanto Jehová dice esto: He aquí yo pongo a este pueblo tropiezos, y caerán en ellos los padres y los hijos juntamente, el vecino y su cercano perecerán.
Por eso, así dice Jehová: «Voy a poner obstáculos delante de este pueblo. Tropezarán con ellos padres e hijos juntos; el vecino y su compañero perecerán».
C'est pourquoi ainsi parle l'Eternel: Voici, je mettrai devant ce peuple des pierres d'achoppement, Contre lesquelles se heurteront ensemble pères et fils, Voisins et amis, et ils périront.
Per tanto, così ha detto il Signore: Ecco, io metterò a questo popolo degl’intoppi, ne’ quali s’intopperanno, padri e figliuoli insieme; vicini ed amici periranno.
Portanto assim diz o SENHOR: Eis que armarei tropeços a este povo; e tropeçarão neles pais e filhos juntamente; o vizinho e o seu companheiro perecerão.
所以耶和華如此說: 「看哪,我要將絆腳石放在這百姓面前; 父親和兒子要一同跌在其上, 鄰舍與朋友也都滅亡。」
