This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Mine heart within me is broken because of the prophets - The first word of this clause is לנבאים lannebiim, which we incorporate with the whole clause, and translate, “Because of the prophets.” But as a new prophecy begins here, it is evident that the word is the title to this prophecy; and is thus distinguished both by Blayney and Dahler, Concerning The Prophets. This discourse was delivered probably in the reign of Jehoiakim.
All my bones shake - He was terrified even by his own message, and shocked at the profanity of the false prophets.
