Jeremiah 17:14-16

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

¹⁴ Heal me, O Lord, and I shall be healed;
    save me, and I shall be saved;
    for thou art my praise.
¹⁵ Behold, they say to me,
    “Where is the word of the Lord?
    Let it come!”
¹⁶ I have not pressed thee to send evil,
    nor have I desired the day of disaster,
    thou knowest;
that which came out of my lips
    was before thy face.
