Charles Ellicott Commentary Jeremiah 13:25

"This is thy lot, the portion measured unto thee from me, saith Jehovah; because thou hast forgotten me, and trusted in falsehood." — Jeremiah 13:25 (ASV)

The portion of your measures. —The meaning of the latter word is doubtful, but it is probably used, as in 1 Samuel 4:12; Leviticus 6:11; 2 Samuel 20:8; Ruth 3:15, for the “upper garment” or “lap” of the dress. In this sense the phrase is connected with those which speak of reward or punishment being given men into their bosom (Jeremiah 32:18; Psalms 79:12; Proverbs 21:14).

In falsehood. —Better, perhaps, in a lie, i.e., in the worship of false gods that were no gods.
