Jeremiah 9:15

Jer 9:15 Therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Behold, I will feed them, [even] this people, with wormwood, and give them water of gall to drink.

Ver. 15. Behold, I will feed them with wormwood, ] i.e., With bitter afflictions. Et haec poena inobedientiae fidei respondet. And this penalty answers to disobiedent faith. The backslider in heart shall be filled with his own ways; Pro 14:14 he shall have his belly full of them, as we use to say. See Jeremiah 8:14 .
