The Key Word — פַּחַד, mi.Pa.chadgenerated
The word פַּחַד (paḥad) means 'dread' or 'fear' and is derived from a root that conveys a sense of alarm. It encompasses feelings of terror and anxiety, often in response to a frightening situation. In this verse, it describes the emotional state of the Israelites as they face the consequences of their disobedience.
The use of this word in the context of the verse highlights the intensity of their fear, which is so profound that it leads them to wish for the opposite time of day, illustrating their deep despair.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
This study reads the verse in the Berean Standard Bible, so the BSB is the wording every comparison below is made against.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The finite verb תֹּאמַר֙ (to.mar), you will say, governs the entire verse, with multiple phrases hanging off it. The structure reflects a parallelism where the morning and evening phrases mirror each other, emphasizing the cyclical nature of the despair expressed.
The verse is constructed with clauses that present a cause-and-effect relationship, where the feelings of dread lead to the statements made in both morning and evening.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
In the Septuagint, the Hebrew word פַּחַד is rendered as φόβος (phobos), which also means 'fear' or 'terror.' This choice reflects a similar emotional state but may broaden the interpretation to include a general sense of fear rather than the specific dread implied in the Hebrew.
This translation choice indicates a slight shift in nuance, as φόβος can encompass a wider range of fear-related emotions than the more specific פַּחַד.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated

Jeremiah (Jeremiah 29:4 ff.) advised the exiles in Babylon to settle down quietly into their new conditions and prosper as they could. This many of them did so thoroughly that it was difficult, if not impossible, to move them to return to Judaea. But a passage like Psalms 137 gives the other side, which this section of D predicts in such terrible detail. On the whole, it seems that the section was written previous to the Babylonian Exile. There is nothing in it hostile to a pre-exilic date.

The four witnesses to this verse — Masoretic, Septuagint, Samaritan, Qumran
The Masoretic Text is supported by the Samaritan Pentateuch, which agrees word for word with the Hebrew text. The Septuagint matches closely but presents a different word order and some variations in articles. The Dead Sea Scrolls contain fragments that align with the Masoretic Text, although some words are restored.

Evening
The period following sunset with which the Jewish day began (Gen. 1:5; Mark 13:35). The Hebrews reckoned two evenings of each day, as appears from Ex. 16:12: 30:8; 12:6 (marg.); Lev. 23:5 (marg. R.V., “between the two evenings”). The “first evening” was that period when the sun was verging towards setting, and the “second evening” the moment of actual sunset. The word “evenings” in Jer. 5:6 should be “deserts” (marg. R.V.).
The Hebrews reckoned two evenings in each day; as in the phrase, "between the two evenings," Ex 12:6 Nu 9:3 28:4. In this interval the Passover was to be killed, and the daily evening sacrifice offered, Ex 29:39-41, Hebrew. According to the Carites, this time between the evenings is the interval from sunset to complete darkness, that is, the evening is the interval from sunset to complete darkness, that is, the evening twilight. Compare De 16:6. According to the Pharisees and the rabbins, the first evening began when the sun inclined to descend more rapidly, that is, at the ninth hour; while the second or real evening commenced at sunset. See DAY.

Evening
The period following sunset with which the Jewish day began (Gen. 1:5; Mark 13:35). The Hebrews reckoned two evenings of each day, as appears from Ex. 16:12: 30:8; 12:6 (marg.); Lev. 23:5 (marg. R.V., “between the two evenings”). The “first evening” was that period when the sun was verging towards setting, and the “second evening” the moment of actual sunset. The word “evenings” in Jer. 5:6 should be “deserts” (marg. R.V.).
The Hebrews reckoned two evenings in each day; as in the phrase, "between the two evenings," Ex 12:6 Nu 9:3 28:4. In this interval the Passover was to be killed, and the daily evening sacrifice offered, Ex 29:39-41, Hebrew. According to the Carites, this time between the evenings is the interval from sunset to complete darkness, that is, the evening is the interval from sunset to complete darkness, that is, the evening twilight. Compare De 16:6. According to the Pharisees and the rabbins, the first evening began when the sun inclined to descend more rapidly, that is, at the ninth hour; while the second or real evening commenced at sunset. See DAY.

In the Norman period, however, "of" was taken to represent the French de (a use well developed by the time of Chaucer), and in the Elizabethan period both senses of "of" were in common use. But after about 1600 the later force of the word became predominant, and in the earlier sense (which is now practically obsolete) it was replaced by other prepositions.
