Jeremiah 21:11-14
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
Message to the House of David
11 To the house of the king of Judah say: Hear the word of the Lord,(A) 12 O house of David! Thus says the Lord:
Execute justice in the morning,
and deliver from the hand of the oppressor
anyone who has been robbed,
or else my wrath will go forth like fire
and burn, with no one to quench it,
because of their evil doings.(B)
13 See, I am against you, O inhabitant of the valley,
O rock of the plain,
says the Lord;
you who say, “Who can come down against us,
or who can enter our places of refuge?”(C)
14 I will punish you according to the fruit of your doings,
says the Lord;
I will kindle a fire in its forest,
and it shall devour all that is around it.(D)
Jeremiah 21:11-14
International Standard Version
The Guilt of Judah’s King
11 “To the house of the king of Judah say, ‘Hear this message from the Lord.
12 This is what the Lord says, house of David:
“Judge appropriately every morning,
and deliver those who have been robbed
from the oppressor,
so my anger does not break out like fire
and burn with no one to put it out
because of your evil deeds.
13 “Look, I’m against you,
city dwelling in the valley,
rock of the plain,”
declares the Lord,
“those of you who say, ‘Who can come down against us
and who can enter our habitations?’
14 But I’ll punish you according to
what you have done,”[a]
declares the Lord.
“I’ll start a fire in her forest,
and it will consume everything around her.”’”
