Exegesis
The clause be-yad-melekh Bavel tinaten {בְּיַד־מֶלֶךְ בָּבֶל תִּנָּתֵן | bə-yad mêleḵ Bāvel tin-nā-ṯēn} uses the Nifal imperfect to express inevitability of the city’s surrender, and u-serafah ba’esh {וּשְׂרָפָהּ בָּאֵשׁ | u-śə-rā-p̄āh bāʾēš} ‘and it will be burned with fire’ employs a Qal perfect to portray definitive destruction. The parallel verb forms and contrasts underscore YHWH’s sovereign judgment.
In context — Jeremiah 21:10
For I have set My face against this city for harm and not for good, declares the LORD ; it will be delivered into the hand of the king of Babylon, and it will be consumed by fire.
