Jeremiah 20:10-12
Christian Standard Bible
10 For I have heard the gossip of many people,
“Terror is on every side!(A)
Report him; let’s report him!”
Everyone I trusted[a] watches for my fall.(B)
“Perhaps he will be deceived
so that we might prevail against him
and take our vengeance on him.”
11 But the Lord is with me like a violent warrior.(C)
Therefore, my persecutors will stumble and not prevail.
Since they have not succeeded, they will be utterly shamed,
an everlasting humiliation that will never be forgotten.(D)
12 Lord of Armies, testing the righteous
and seeing the heart[b] and mind,
let me see your vengeance on them,
for I have presented my case to you.(E)
