Jeremiah 18:19-23
World English Bible
19 Give heed to me, Yahweh,
and listen to the voice of those who contend with me.
20 Should evil be recompensed for good?
For they have dug a pit for my soul.
Remember how I stood before you to speak good for them,
to turn away your wrath from them.
21 Therefore deliver up their children to the famine,
and give them over to the power of the sword.
Let their wives become childless and widows.
Let their men be killed
and their young men struck by the sword in battle.
22 Let a cry be heard from their houses
when you bring a troop suddenly on them;
for they have dug a pit to take me
and hidden snares for my feet.
23 Yet, Yahweh, you know all their counsel against me to kill me.
Don’t forgive their iniquity.
Don’t blot out their sin from your sight,
Let them be overthrown before you.
Deal with them in the time of your anger.
Jeremiah 18:19-23
New International Version
19 Listen to me, Lord;
hear what my accusers(A) are saying!
20 Should good be repaid with evil?(B)
Yet they have dug a pit(C) for me.
Remember that I stood(D) before you
and spoke in their behalf(E)
to turn your wrath away from them.
21 So give their children over to famine;(F)
hand them over to the power of the sword.(G)
Let their wives be made childless and widows;(H)
let their men be put to death,
their young men(I) slain by the sword in battle.
22 Let a cry(J) be heard from their houses
when you suddenly bring invaders against them,
for they have dug a pit(K) to capture me
and have hidden snares(L) for my feet.
23 But you, Lord, know
all their plots to kill(M) me.
Do not forgive(N) their crimes
or blot out their sins from your sight.
Let them be overthrown before you;
deal with them in the time of your anger.(O)
