Jeremiah 15:15-17

New International Version - UK

¹⁵ Lord, you understand;
    remember me and care for me.
    Avenge me on my persecutors.
You are long-suffering – do not take me away;
    think of how I suffer reproach for your sake.
¹⁶ When your words came, I ate them;
    they were my joy and my heart’s delight,
for I bear your name,
    Lord God Almighty.
¹⁷ I never sat in the company of revellers,
    never made merry with them;
I sat alone because your hand was on me
    and you had filled me with indignation.
