Jeremiah 18:19-21
The Voice
19 Jeremiah: O Eternal my God, please listen to me.
Do You hear what my enemies are saying?
20 Should good be repaid with such evil?
They have set a trap for me.
Remember how I stood before You in prayer,
begging You to do them good,
Pleading for You to turn Your anger away from them,
and this is how they repay me!
21 Well then. Let their children starve!
Let their young warriors fall in battle!
Let their wives become childless widows!
Let their husbands be struck down and killed
and their young men die in battle!
Jeremiah 18:19-21
New International Version
Jeremiah 18:19-21
New International Version
19 Listen to me, Lord;
hear what my accusers(A) are saying!
20 Should good be repaid with evil?(B)
Yet they have dug a pit(C) for me.
Remember that I stood(D) before you
and spoke in their behalf(E)
to turn your wrath away from them.
21 So give their children over to famine;(F)
hand them over to the power of the sword.(G)
Let their wives be made childless and widows;(H)
let their men be put to death,
their young men(I) slain by the sword in battle.
