Jeremiah 18:19-21

Legacy Standard Bible

¹⁹ Do give heed to me, O Yahweh,
And listen to the voice of those who contend against me!
^20 (A)Should good be repaid with evil?
For they have ^(B)dug a pit for ^[a]me.
Remember how I ^(C)stood before You
To speak good on their behalf,
So as to turn away Your wrath from them.
²¹ Therefore, ^(D)give their children over to famine
And deliver them up to the ^[b]power of the sword;
And let their wives become ^(E)childless and ^(F)widowed.
Let their men also be ^[c]smitten to death,
Their ^(G)young men struck down by the sword in battle.
