14 And I will make thee to pass with thine enemies into a land which thou knowest not: for a fire is kindled in mine anger, which shall burn upon you.

15 O Lord, thou knowest: remember me, and visit me, and revenge me of my persecutors; take me not away in thy longsuffering: know that for thy sake I have suffered rebuke.

16 Thy words were found, and I did eat them; and thy word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of mine heart: for I am called by thy name, O Lord God of hosts.

14 And I will [a]make you cross over with your enemies
(A)Into a land which you do not know;
For a (B)fire is kindled in My anger,
Which shall burn upon you.”

15 O Lord, (C)You know;
Remember me and [b]visit me,
And (D)take vengeance for me on my persecutors.
In Your enduring patience, do not take me away.
Know that (E)for Your sake I have suffered rebuke.
16 Your words were found, and I (F)ate them,
And (G)Your word was to me the joy and rejoicing of my heart;
For I am called by Your name,
O Lord God of hosts.
