Jeremiah 15:16-18
World English Bible
16 Your words were found,
and I ate them.
Your words were to me a joy and the rejoicing of my heart,
for I am called by your name, Yahweh, God of Armies.
17 I didn’t sit in the assembly of those who make merry and rejoice.
I sat alone because of your hand,
for you have filled me with indignation.
18 Why is my pain perpetual,
and my wound incurable,
which refuses to be healed?
Will you indeed be to me as a deceitful brook,
like waters that fail?
Jeremiah 15:16-18
New International Version
16 When your words came, I ate(A) them;
they were my joy and my heart’s delight,(B)
for I bear your name,(C)
Lord God Almighty.
17 I never sat(D) in the company of revelers,
never made merry with them;
I sat alone because your hand(E) was on me
and you had filled me with indignation.
18 Why is my pain unending
and my wound grievous and incurable?(F)
You are to me like a deceptive brook,
like a spring that fails.(G)
