Jeremiah 20:11-13
World English Bible
11 But Yahweh is with me as an awesome mighty one.
Therefore my persecutors will stumble,
and they won’t prevail.
They will be utterly disappointed,
because they have not dealt wisely,
even with an everlasting dishonor which will never be forgotten.
12 But Yahweh of Armies, who tests the righteous,
who sees the heart and the mind,
let me see your vengeance on them,
for I have revealed my cause to you.
13 Sing to Yahweh!
Praise Yahweh,
for he has delivered the soul of the needy from the hand of evildoers.
Jeremiah 20:11-13
Christian Standard Bible
11 But the Lord is with me like a violent warrior.(A)
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.(B)
12 Lord of Armies, testing the righteous
and seeing the heart[a] and mind,
let me see your vengeance on them,
for I have presented my case to you.(C)
13 Sing to the Lord!
Praise the Lord,
for he rescues the life of the needy
from evil people.
