What does Jeremiah 21:11 mean?

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on Jeremiah 21:11-14
The wickedness of the king and his family was the worse because of their relation to David. They were urged to act with justice, at once, lest the Lord's anger should be unquenchable. If God be for us, who can be against us? But if he be against us, who can do any thing for us?
