Jeremiah 11:18-20

GOD’S WORD Translation

Jeremiah’s Life Is Threatened

¹⁸ The Lord revealed their plot to me so that I would understand. He showed me what they were doing. ¹⁹ I was like a trusting lamb brought to the slaughter. I didn’t know that they were plotting against me. They were saying, “Let’s destroy the tree with its fruit. Let’s cut Jeremiah off from this world of the living so that we won’t be reminded of him anymore.”
