Jeremiah Prays for Understanding
16 After I had given the deed of purchase to Baruch son of Neriah, I prayed to the Lord, saying: 17 “Ah Lord God! It is you who made the heavens and the earth by your great power and by your outstretched arm! Nothing is too hard for you.(A) 18 You show steadfast love to the thousandth generation[a] but repay the guilt of parents into the laps of their children after them, O great and mighty God whose name is the Lord of hosts,(B) 19 great in counsel and mighty in deed, whose eyes are open to all the ways of mortals, rewarding all according to their ways and according to the fruit of their doings.(C) 20 You showed signs and wonders in the land of Egypt and to this day in Israel and among all humankind and have made yourself a name that continues to this very day.(D) 21 You brought your people Israel out of the land of Egypt with signs and wonders, with a strong hand and outstretched arm, and with great terror,(E) 22 and you gave them this land, which you swore to their ancestors to give them, a land flowing with milk and honey,(F) 23 and they entered and took possession of it. But they did not obey your voice or follow your laws; of all you commanded them to do, they did nothing. Therefore you have made all these disasters come upon them.(G) 24 See, the siege ramps have been cast up against the city to take it, and the city, faced with sword, famine, and pestilence, has been given into the hands of the Chaldeans who are fighting against it. What you spoke has happened, as you yourself can see.(H) 25 Yet you, O Lord God, have said to me, ‘Buy the field for silver and get witnesses,’ though the city has been given into the hands of the Chaldeans.”

New International Version
16 “After I had given the deed of purchase to Baruch(A) son of Neriah, I prayed to the Lord:
17 “Ah, Sovereign Lord,(B) you have made the heavens and the earth(C) by your great power and outstretched arm.(D) Nothing is too hard(E) for you. 18 You show love(F) to thousands but bring the punishment for the parents’ sins into the laps(G) of their children(H) after them. Great and mighty God,(I) whose name is the Lord Almighty,(J) 19 great are your purposes and mighty are your deeds.(K) Your eyes are open to the ways of all mankind;(L) you reward each person according to their conduct and as their deeds deserve.(M) 20 You performed signs and wonders(N) in Egypt(O) and have continued them to this day, in Israel and among all mankind, and have gained the renown(P) that is still yours. 21 You brought your people Israel out of Egypt with signs and wonders, by a mighty hand(Q) and an outstretched arm(R) and with great terror.(S) 22 You gave them this land you had sworn to give their ancestors, a land flowing with milk and honey.(T) 23 They came in and took possession(U) of it, but they did not obey you or follow your law;(V) they did not do what you commanded them to do. So you brought all this disaster(W) on them.
24 “See how the siege ramps(X) are built up to take the city. Because of the sword, famine and plague,(Y) the city will be given into the hands of the Babylonians who are attacking it. What you said(Z) has happened,(AA) as you now see. 25 And though the city will be given into the hands of the Babylonians, you, Sovereign Lord, say to me, ‘Buy the field(AB) with silver and have the transaction witnessed.(AC)’”

Do not fear or be dismayed; tomorrow go out against them, and the Lord will be with you.”(B)
18 Then Jehoshaphat bowed down with his face to the ground, and all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem fell down before the Lord, worshiping the Lord.(C) 19 And the Levites of the Kohathites and the Korahites stood up to praise the Lord, the God of Israel, with a very loud voice.
20 They rose early in the morning and went out into the wilderness of Tekoa, and as they went out Jehoshaphat stood and said, “Listen to me, O Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem! Believe in the Lord your God and you will be established; believe his prophets and you will succeed.”(D)

For the battle(B) is not yours, but God’s. 16 Tomorrow march down against them. They will be climbing up by the Pass of Ziz, and you will find them at the end of the gorge in the Desert of Jeruel. 17 You will not have to fight this battle. Take up your positions; stand firm and see(C) the deliverance the Lord will give you, Judah and Jerusalem. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged. Go out to face them tomorrow, and the Lord will be with you.’”
18 Jehoshaphat bowed down(D) with his face to the ground, and all the people of Judah and Jerusalem fell down in worship before the Lord. 19 Then some Levites from the Kohathites and Korahites stood up and praised the Lord, the God of Israel, with a very loud voice.
20 Early in the morning they left for the Desert of Tekoa. As they set out, Jehoshaphat stood and said, “Listen to me, Judah and people of Jerusalem! Have faith(E) in the Lord your God and you will be upheld; have faith in his prophets and you will be successful.(F)”
