Jeremiah 21:11-13

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

Message to the House of David

¹¹To the house of the king of Judah say: Hear the word of the Lord, ¹²O house of David! Thus says the Lord:

Execute justice in the morning,
    and deliver from the hand of the oppressor
    anyone who has been robbed,
or else my wrath will go forth like fire,
    and burn, with no one to quench it,
    because of your evil doings.

¹³See, I am against you, O inhabitant of the valley,
O rock of the plain,
says the Lord;
you who say, “Who can come down against us,
or who can enter our places of refuge?”
