Jeremiah 10:23-25

Complete Jewish Bible

²³ Adonai, I know that the way of humans
is not in their control,
humans are not able
to direct their steps as they walk.
²⁴ Adonai, correct me, but in moderation,
not in your anger, or you’ll reduce me to nothing.
²⁵ Pour out your anger on the nations
that do not acknowledge you,
also on the families
that do not call on your name.
For they have consumed Ya‘akov —
consumed him and finished him off,
and laid waste to his home.
