The Key Word — תִשְׁמָע֔וּהָ, tish.ma.'U.hagenerated
The verb שָׁמַע (shama`) means 'to hear' or 'to listen.' It is in the second person masculine plural imperfect form, indicating an ongoing or future action directed at the people. The suffix indicates that the object of hearing is something specific that God desires them to heed.
In this context, it expresses a conditional relationship: if they do not listen, the consequences will be dire. The emphasis on listening implies not just hearing sounds but responding with obedience, a theme central to the prophetic messages.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
This study reads the verse in the Berean Standard Bible, which uses the phrase you do not listen.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The structure of the verse is governed by the main clause introduced by וְאִם֙ (ve.'Im), which sets up a condition. The subsequent clauses detail the actions that will follow if the condition is met, illustrating the cause-and-effect relationship inherent in the warning.
The finite verb תִשְׁמָע֔וּהָ (tish.ma.'U.ha) is pivotal, with several phrases expanding on the consequences of not listening, including the emotional response of weeping and the imagery of overflowing tears.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
The Septuagint translates תִשְׁמָע֔וּהָ as ἀκούσητε (akousēte), meaning 'you will hear.' This choice emphasizes the act of hearing as an imperative, aligning with the Hebrew's conditional warning.
The use of ἀκούσητε suggests an expectation for the audience to actively listen, reinforcing the urgency of Jeremiah's message.

My soul shall weep in secret places.] Good men are apt to weep, Et faciles motus mens generosa capit. Good ministers should be full of compassionate tears, weeping in secret for their people’ s unprofitableness, and their danger thereby. The breast and right shoulder of the sacrifice belonged to the priest, to show that he should be a breast to love, and a shoulder to support the people in their troubles and burdens.

Charles John Ellicott1819–1905Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(17) My soul shall weep in secret places for your pride.—The words present no difficulty that requires explanation, but deserve to be noted in their exquisite tenderness as characteristic of the prophet’s temperament (comp. Lamentations 1:16), reminding us of the tears shed over Jerusalem (Luke 19:41) and of St. Paul’s “great heaviness and continual sorrow” (Romans 9:2). Nothing remained for one who found his labours fruitless but silent sorrow and intercession. The “secret places” find a parallel in our Lord’s withdrawal for prayer into a “solitary place” (Mark 1:35).

ov:
(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.

One taken in war. Captives were often treated with great cruelty and indignity (1 Kings 20:32; Josh. 10:24; Judg. 1:7; 2 Sam. 4:12; Judg. 8:7; 2 Sam. 12:31; 1 Chr. 20:3). When a city was taken by assault, all the men were slain, and the women and children carried away captive and sold as slaves (Isa. 20; 47:3; 2 Chr. 28:9-15; Ps. 44:12; Joel 3:3)…
A prisoner of war. Such were usually treated with great cruelty by the heathen nations. They were kept for slaves, and often sold; but this was a modification of the ancient cruelty, and a substitute for putting them to death Although the treatment of captives by the Jews seems sometimes to be cruel, it was very much milder than that of the heathen, and was mitigated, as far as possible in the circumstances, by their civil code.
