Jeremiah 10:23-25
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
23 I know, O Lord, that the way of humans is not in their control,
that mortals as they walk cannot direct their steps.(A)
24 Correct me, O Lord, but in just measure;
not in your anger, or you will bring me to nothing.(B)
25 Pour out your wrath on the nations that do not know you
and on the peoples that do not call on your name,
for they have devoured Jacob;
they have devoured him and consumed him
and have laid waste his habitation.(C)
Jeremiah 10:23-25
Evangelical Heritage Version
Jeremiah’s Prayer
23 I know, Lord, that a man’s way is not his own,
nor can a man direct his own steps.
24 Correct me, Lord, but with justice,
not in your anger,
or you will reduce me to nothing.
25 Pour out your wrath on the nations who do not acknowledge you,
on the peoples who do not call on your name,
for they have devoured Jacob.
They have devoured him completely
and made his homeland desolate.
