This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Jer_18:12 And they said, There is no hope: but we will walk after our own devices, and we will every one do the imagination of his evil heart.
Ver. 12. And they said, There is no hope.] {a} See the like desperate return, Jer_2:25; Jer_13:9. Actum est: vel desperatum est: vel expectaratum est - that is, we are at a point, and have made our conclusion. Thou mayest save a labour of further exhorting us; for we are as good as we mean to be, and shall not stir from our resolution. Keep thy breath to cool thy broth, &c.
We will do every one the imagination of his evil heart.] As you forsooth please to count it and call it; though we reckon that we have as good hearts as the purest or proudest of you all.
{a} Refert stomachose cantilenam illorum obstinatam.
