Therefore thus saith the LORD; Ye have not hearkened unto me, in proclaiming liberty, every one to his brother, and every man to his neighbour: behold, I proclaim a liberty for you, saith the LORD, to the sword, to the pestilence, and to the famine; and I will make you to be removed into all the kingdoms of the earth.

Commentary on Jeremiah 34:17

Theological / Devotional

I proclaim a liberty. The God-ordained freedom (Lev. 25:10) the people denied to their fellows would be turned by God’s judgment into a “liberty” that would leave the transgressors “to the sword, to the pestilence, and to the famine,” and also to the Captivity.
