Jeremiah 20:11-13
Legacy Standard Bible
11 But (A)Yahweh is with me like a ruthless mighty one;
Therefore my (B)persecutors will stumble and not prevail.
They will be utterly ashamed, because they have not prospered,
With an (C)everlasting dishonor that will not be forgotten.
12 Yet, O Yahweh of hosts, You who (D)test the righteous,
Who see the [a]mind and the heart;
Let me (E)see Your vengeance on them,
For (F)to You I have revealed my cause.
13 (G)Sing to Yahweh, praise Yahweh!
For He has (H)delivered the soul of the needy one
From the hand of evildoers.

Jeremiah 20:11-13
Evangelical Heritage Version
11 But the Lord is with me like a terrifying warrior.
So my persecutors will stumble,
and they will not gain the upper hand.
They will be put to shame completely,
because they have not been successful.
Their eternal disgrace will never be forgotten.
12 Lord of Armies, you test the righteous.
You see the heart and the mind.
Let me see your vengeance on them,
for I have laid out my case before you.
13 Sing to the Lord!
Praise the Lord,
for he has delivered the life of the needy
from the hand of the wicked.
