Jeremiah 15:11

Compare all

9 “She^a languishes who has borne seven;
She has breathed her last;
^bHer sun has gone down
While it was yet day;
She has been ashamed and confounded.
And the remnant of them I will deliver to the sword
Before their enemies,” says the Lord.

Jeremiah’s Dejection

10 ^aWoe is me, my mother,
That you have borne me,
A man of strife and a man of contention to the whole¹ earth!
I have neither lent for interest,
Nor have men lent to me for interest.
Every one of them curses me.

11 The Lord said:
“Surely it will be well with your remnant;
Surely I will cause ^athe enemy to intercede with you
In the time of adversity and in the time of affliction.

12 Can anyone break iron,
The northern iron and the bronze?

13 Your wealth and your treasures
I will give as ^aplunder without price,
Because of all your sins,
Throughout your territories.

14 And I will¹ make you cross over with your enemies
^aInto a land which you do not know;
For a ^bfire is kindled in My anger,
Which shall burn upon you.”
