Jeremiah 18:21-23

Expanded Bible

²¹ So now, ·let their children starve [^Lgive their children to starvation],
    and ·let their enemies kill them with swords [^Lgive them over to the power of the sword].
Let their wives ·lose their children and husbands [^Lbe childless and widows].
    Let the men [^Cfrom Judah] be ·put to death [slain by pestilence]
    and the young men be killed with swords in battle.
²² Let them cry out in their houses
    when you bring ·an enemy [plunderers; marauders] against them suddenly.
Let all this happen, because my enemies have dug
    a pit to capture me and have hidden traps for my feet.
²³ Lord, you know
    about all their plans to kill me.
Don’t forgive their ·crimes [iniquity]
    or ·erase [wipe away; blot out] their sins from ·your mind [^Lbefore you].
Make them ·fall [stumble] ·from their places [^Lbefore you];
    ·punish [^Ldeal with] them while you are angry.
