Exegesis
The verse begins with the conditional particle im {אִם־ | ʾim} followed by the Qal perfect yatzati {יָצָ֣אתִי | yā-ṣā-ʾtî} ‘I went out’ and locative hasadeh {הַשָּׂדֶ֗ה | haś-śā-deh} ‘the field.’
In context — Jeremiah 14:18
If I go out into the field, behold the slain by the sword! And if I enter the city, behold the diseases of famine! For both the prophet and the priest roam through the land and have no understanding .
