Exegesis
The causal clause begins with ki and the perfect verb asafti {אָסַפְתִּי | ʾā-sap-ti} ‘I have withdrawn’, governing three objects marked by et-she-lomi {אֶת־שְׁלוֹמִ֜י | ʾeṯ-šə-lō-mî} ‘My peace’, et-ha-ḥe-seḏ {אֶת־הַחֶסֶד | ʾeṯ-ha-ḥe-seḏ} ‘steadfast love’, and ve-et-ha-ra-cha-mim {וְאֶת־הָרַחֲמִֽים | wə-ʾeṯ-ha-ra-ḥa-mîm} ‘mercies’.
In context — Jeremiah 16:5
For thus says the LORD : Do not enter the house of mourning, and do not go to lament, and do not bemoan them, for I have withdrawn My peace from this people, declares the LORD—even lovingkindness and compassion .
