Exegesis

The two temporal clauses—bə-TE-rem yakh-SHIKH {בְּטֶרֶם יַחְשִׁיךְ | bə-te-rem yaḥ-šîḵ} “before He brings darkness” and ū-bə-TE-rem yit-nag-GE-fu rag-lê-khem ʿal ha-rê nā-šef {וּבְטֶרֶם יִתְנַגְּפוּ רַגְלֵיכֶם עַל־הָרֵי נָשֶׁף | ū-bə-te-rem yit-nag-gə-fū rag-lê-khem ʿal ha-rê nā-šef} “and before your feet stumble on the mountains of twilight”—establish urgency as divine action and human peril converge.

In contextJeremiah 13:16

Give glory to the LORD your God before He brings darkness, and before your feet stumble on the mountains of twilight ; while you hope for light, He makes it into the shadow of death and sets it into thick darkness.
