Jeremiah 11:21-23

EasyEnglish Bible

²¹ The Lord told me that some men in Anathoth wanted to kill me. They said to me, ‘Stop telling us messages from the Lord! If you do not stop, we will kill you.’ ²² So the Lord Almighty said, ‘Yes, I will certainly punish them! Their young men will die as they fight in war. Their children will be so hungry that they die. ²³ All those men in Anathoth who wanted to kill you will die. At the right time, I will punish them with great trouble.’
