Jeremiah 17:16-18

Amplified Bible

¹⁶ 
But as for me, I have not tried to escape from being a shepherd [walking] after You,
Nor have I longed for the woeful day [of judgment];
You know that, whatever I said
Was [spoken] in Your presence and was from You.
¹⁷ 
Do not be a terror to me;
You are my refuge and my hope in the day of disaster.
¹⁸ 
Let those who persecute me be shamed, but as for me, protect me from shame;
Let them lose courage, but let me be undaunted.
Bring on them a day of tragedy,
And destroy them with double destruction!
