Compare all
13 O Lord, athe hope of Israel,
bAll who forsake You shall be ashamed.
“Those who depart from Me
Shall be cwritten in the earth,
Because they have forsaken the Lord,
The dfountain of living waters.” 

Jeremiah Prays for Deliverance

14 Heal me, O Lord, and I shall be healed;
Save me, and I shall be saved,
For aYou are my praise. 
15 Indeed they say to me,
a“Where is the word of the Lord?
Let it come now!” 
16 As for me, aI have not hurried away from being a shepherd who follows You,
Nor have I desired the woeful day;
You know what came out of my lips;
It was right there before You. 
17 Do not be a terror to me;
aYou are my hope in the day of doom. 
18 aLet them be ashamed who persecute me,
But bdo not let me be put to shame;
Let them be dismayed,
But do not let me be dismayed.
Bring on them the day of doom,
And cdestroy them with double destruction!

19 Thus the Lord said to me: “Go and stand in the gate of the children of the people, by which the kings of Judah come in and by which they go out, and in all the gates of Jerusalem;
20 and say to them, a‘Hear the word of the Lord, you kings of Judah, and all Judah, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, who enter by these gates.

Jeremiah 17:15

Where is the word of the Lord? - Where is the accomplishment of his threatenings? Thou hast said that the city and the temple should both be destroyed. No such events have yet taken place. But they did take place, and every tittle of the menace was strictly fulfilled.
