Jeremiah 17:12-14
Easy-to-Read Version
12 From the very beginning, our Temple
has been a glorious throne for God.
It is a very important place.
13 Lord, you are the hope of Israel.
You are like a spring of living water.
Those who stop following the Lord
will have a very short life.[a]
Jeremiah’s Third Complaint
14 Lord, if you heal me, I surely will be healed.
Save me, and I surely will be saved.
Lord, I praise you!
Footnotes
- Jeremiah 17:13 will have a very short life Literally, “he will be written in the dirt.” This might mean that a person’s name was written on a list of people who would soon die, or that a person’s life will soon be gone—like a name written in the sand.
