Jeremiah 18:21-23

Modern English Version

²¹ Therefore, deliver up their children to the famine
    and pour out their blood by the power of the sword;
and let their wives be bereaved of their children and become widows
    and let their men be put to death;
    let their young men be slain by the sword in battle.
²² Let a cry be heard from their houses,
    when You bring a troop suddenly upon them;
for they have dug a pit to take me
    and hidden snares for my feet.
²³ Yet, Lord, You know
    all their counsel against me to slay me.
Do not forgive their iniquity
    nor blot out their sin from Your sight;
but let them be overthrown before You;
    deal thus with them in the time of Your anger.
