Jeremiah Asks the Lord for Help

14 Lord, heal me and I will be completely well; rescue me and I will be perfectly safe. You are the one I praise!

15 The people say to me, “Where are those threats the Lord made against us? Let him carry them out now!”

16 But, Lord, I never urged you to bring disaster on them;[a] I did not wish a time of trouble for them. Lord, you know this; you know what I have said.
