Jeremiah 17:13-18

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹³ O Lord the hope of Israel: all that forsake thee shall be confounded: they that depart from thee, shall be written in the earth: because they have forsaken the Lord, the vein of living waters.

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 And I am not troubled, following thee for my pastor, and I have not desired the day of man, thou knowest. That which went out of my lips, hath been right in thy sight.

¹⁷ Be not thou a terror unto me, thou art my hope in the day of affliction.

¹⁸ Let them be confounded that persecute me, and let not me be confounded: let them be afraid, and let not me be afraid: bring upon them the day of affliction, and with a double destruction, destroy them.
