Jeremiah 15:11-13

International Children’s Bible

¹¹ The Lord said,
    “I will save you for a good reason.
I will make your enemies beg you
    in times of disaster and trouble.
¹² No one can smash a piece of iron or bronze.
    I mean the kind of iron and bronze that comes from the north.
¹³ The people of Judah have wealth and treasures.
    But I will freely give those riches to others.
This is because the people of Judah have sinned
    throughout the country.
