Exegesis
The phrase raʿah al-ham-makom hazeh {רָעָה עַל־הַמָּקוֹם הַזֶּה | rā-ʿāh ʿal-ham-mā-qōm haz-zeh} frames the imminent judgment, and the relative clause asher kol-shomʿah titstsalnah oznav {אֲשֶׁר כָּל־שֹׁמְעָהּ תִּצַּלְנָה אָזְנָיו | ʾă-šer kol-šom-ʿāh tit-tsal-nāh ʾōz-nāv} describes the visceral effect that everyone’s ears will physically react, conveying communal shock.
In context — Jeremiah 19:3
And you shall say, “Hear the word of the LORD , O kings of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem. Thus says the LORD of hosts , the God of Israel : Behold, I am bringing disaster upon this place so that everyone who hears about it—his ears will tingle.”
