Exegesis

The conjunction ki {כִּי | kî} introduces esh kedakhtem {אֵשׁ קְדַחְתֶּם | ʾēš qə-daḥ-tem} ‘fire you have kindled,’ and the Nifal imperfect tukad {תּוּקָד | tû-qāḏ} ‘it shall burn’ with adolam {עַד־עוֹלָם | ʿad-ʿō-lām} ‘forever’ conveys perpetual judgment. The sequence underscores divine retribution through dispossession, exile, and unending fire.

In contextJeremiah 17:4

And you shall let go of your inheritance which I gave you, and I will make you serve your enemies in a land you did not know because you kindled a fire in my anger , and it shall burn forever.
