Albert Barnes Commentary Jeremiah 6:11

"Therefore I am full of the wrath of Jehovah; I am weary with holding in: pour it out upon the children in the street, and upon the assembly of young men together; for even the husband with the wife shall be taken, the aged with him that is full of days." — Jeremiah 6:11 (ASV)

Or, But I am filled with the fury of Yahweh: I am weary with holding it in. Pour it out upon the children in the street, and upon the company of youths together; for both man and wife shall be taken; the older and he whose days are full. With emphatic abruptness Jeremiah bids himself give full utterance to God’s message. And the message is to reach all. Five stages of human life are successively marked out.
