**saying**
The sign of the unmarried prophet is interpreted by the context. The whole social life of Judah was about to be disrupted and cease from the land. But note the promises of verses [Jeremiah 16:14-16](../../../kjv/jeremiah/16/14-16); [Jeremiah 17:7](../../../kjv/jeremiah/17/7); [Jeremiah 17:8](../../../kjv/jeremiah/17/8).

**The Lord**
Or, JEHOVAH. [Psalms 83:18](../../../kjv/psalms/83/18).
