Jeremiah 10:23-25
New American Standard Bible
23 I know, Lord, that (A)a person’s way is not in himself,
(B)Nor is it in a person who walks to direct his steps.
24 (C)Correct me, Lord, but with justice;
Not with Your anger, or You will [a]bring me to nothing.
25 (D)Pour out Your wrath on the nations that (E)do not know You,
And on the families who (F)do not call upon Your name;
For they have devoured Jacob;
They have (G)devoured him and consumed him,
And have laid waste his [b]settlement.

Jeremiah 10:23-25
Holman Christian Standard Bible
23 I know, Lord,
that a man’s way of life is not his own;
no one who walks determines his own steps.(A)
24 Discipline me, Lord, but with justice—
not in Your anger,(B)
or You will reduce me to nothing.
25 Pour out Your wrath on the nations
that don’t recognize You
and on the families
that don’t call on Your name,
for they have consumed Jacob;
they have consumed him and finished him off
and made his homeland desolate.(C)
