Jeremiah 15:15-18
Legacy Standard Bible
15 (A)You who know, O Yahweh,
Remember me, take notice of me,
And (B)take vengeance for me on my persecutors.
Do not, in view of Your patience, take me away;
Know that (C)for Your sake I endure reproach.
16 Your words were found, and I (D)ate them,
And Your (E)words became for me joy and gladness in my heart,
For I have been (F)called by Your name,
O Yahweh God of hosts.
17 I (G)did not sit in the circle of merrymakers,
Nor did I exult.
Because of Your hand upon me I sat (H)alone,
For You (I)filled me with indignation.
18 Why has my pain been perpetual
And my (J)wound incurable, refusing to be healed?
Will You indeed be to me (K)like a deceptive stream
With water that is unreliable?
Jeremiah 15:15-18
New American Standard Bible
Jeremiah’s Prayer and God’s Answer
15 (A)You know, Lord;
Remember me, take notice of me,
And (B)take vengeance for me on my persecutors.
Do not, in view of Your patience, take me away;
Know that (C)for Your sake I endure reproach.
16 Your words were found and I (D)ate them,
And Your (E)words became a joy to me and the delight of my heart;
For I have been (F)called by Your name,
Lord God of armies.
17 I (G)did not sit in a circle of revelers and celebrate.
Because of Your hand upon me I sat (H)alone,
For You (I)filled me with indignation.
18 Why has my pain been endless
And my (J)wound incurable, refusing to be healed?
Will You indeed be to me (K)like a deceptive stream
With water that is unreliable?
Jeremiah 15:15-18
New International Version
15 Lord, you understand;
remember me and care for me.
Avenge me on my persecutors.(A)
You are long-suffering(B)—do not take me away;
think of how I suffer reproach for your sake.(C)
16 When your words came, I ate(D) them;
they were my joy and my heart’s delight,(E)
for I bear your name,(F)
Lord God Almighty.
17 I never sat(G) in the company of revelers,
never made merry with them;
I sat alone because your hand(H) was on me
and you had filled me with indignation.
18 Why is my pain unending
and my wound grievous and incurable?(I)
You are to me like a deceptive brook,
like a spring that fails.(J)
