Jeremiah 11:21

Compare all

19 But I was like a docile lamb brought to the slaughter; and I did not know that they had devised schemes against me, saying, “Let us destroy the tree with its fruit, ^aand let us cut him off from ^bthe land of the living, that his name may be remembered no more.”

20 But, O Lord of hosts,
You who judge righteously,
^aTesting the¹ mind and the heart,
Let me see Your ^bvengeance on them,
For to You I have revealed my cause.

21 “Therefore thus says the Lord concerning the men of ^aAnathoth who seek your life, saying, ^b‘Do not prophesy in the name of the Lord, lest you die by our hand’—

22 therefore thus says the Lord of hosts: ‘Behold, I will punish them. The young men shall die by the sword, their sons and their daughters shall ^adie by famine;

23 and there shall be no remnant of them, for I will bring catastrophe on the men of Anathoth, even ^athe year of their punishment.’ ”
