Albert Barnes Commentary Jeremiah 2:19

"Thine own wickedness shall correct thee, and thy backslidings shall reprove thee: know therefore and see that it is an evil thing and a bitter, that thou hast forsaken Jehovah thy God, and that my fear is not in thee, saith the Lord, Jehovah of hosts." — Jeremiah 2:19 (ASV)

Correct you - Or, “chastise you.” Alliances with foreign powers shall bring trouble and not safety.
