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
International Standard Version
Jeremiah’s Prayer
23 Lord, I know that a person’s life is not his to control,[a]
nor does a person establish his way in life.[b]
24 Lord, correct me, but with justice,
not with anger.
Otherwise, you’ll bring me to nothing.
25 Pour out your anger on the nations
that don’t acknowledge you,
and on the families that don’t call on your name.
For they have devoured Jacob;
they have devoured and consumed him;
they have devastated his habitation.
