The Key Word — בָּגְדוּ, Ba.ge.dugenerated
The verb בָּגַד (bagad) means to act treacherously or deceitfully. It conveys a sense of betrayal that is particularly poignant in familial relationships, as seen in this verse. The parsing indicates it is in the perfect tense, showing a completed action — the betrayal has already occurred.
This word captures the essence of unfaithfulness, highlighting the emotional weight of betrayal by those who should be trusted. The use of this term here underscores the depth of Jeremiah's sorrow and the gravity of the situation he faces.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
This study reads the verse in the Berean Standard Bible, which uses betrayed for בָּגְדוּ. The KJV and ASV also use betrayed, maintaining the original sense of treachery.
Where translations differ, they do so primarily in the rendering of טוֹבֽוֹת. The BSB and others opt for good things, while the ILT translates it as kindly, reflecting different nuances in the Hebrew.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The verse consists of multiple clauses, with the main verb בָּגְדוּ (they have betrayed) governing the structure. It is followed by several phrases that elaborate on the subjects and actions, including the betrayal and the call to not trust.
The structure emphasizes the betrayal and the warning against misplaced trust, with the repeated use of גַּם־ (also) underscoring the cumulative nature of the betrayal.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
In the Septuagint, בָּגְדוּ is rendered as ἠθέτησάν, which carries the connotation of having acted treacherously. This choice reflects a similar understanding of betrayal, though the Greek word may not capture the full familial context inherent in the Hebrew.
The LXX maintains a close correspondence with the Hebrew text, indicating a consistent interpretation of the themes of betrayal and trust.

Charles John Ellicott1819–1905Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(6) Thy brethren.—It is not certain whether we are to think actually of the sons of the same father, or only of the men of Anathoth (Jeremiah 11:23), as belonging to the same section of the priesthood. The language of Jer 9:5 favours the more literal rendering. In any case, it is interesting to note that the proverb which our Lord more than once quotes, “A prophet is not without honour save in his own country and in his own house” (Matthew 13:57; Luke 4:24; John 4:44), probably had its origin in the sad experience of Jeremiah. They have called a multitude after thee.—Better, have shouted a full shout (in our English phrase, “have raised a hue and cry”) after thee.

(1) In Anglo-Saxon, had the meaning "from," "away from" (as the strengthened form "off" has still), and was not used for genitive or possessive relations, these being expressed by special case-forms. In the Norman period, however, "of" was taken to represent the French de (a use well developed by the time of Chaucer), and in the Elizabethan period both senses of "of" were in common use. But after about 1600 the later force of the word became predominant, and in the earlier sense (which is now practically obsolete) it was replaced by other prepositions. In consequence the King James Version (and in some cases the Revised Version (British and American)) contains many uses of "of" that are no longer familiar--most of them, to be sure, causing no difficulty, but there still being a few responsible for real obscurities.

This is the primary sense, although we now say, produced by man. 'Part of these were slain; ' that is, a number separate, for part denotes a division; the sense then is, a number from or out of the whole were slain. So also, 'some of these were slain; ' that is…
