Jeremiah 10:24-25
1599 Geneva Bible
24 O Lord, correct me, but with [a]judgment, not in thine anger, lest thou bring me to nothing.
25 Pour out [b]thy wrath upon the heathen that know thee not, and upon the families that call not on thy Name: for they have eaten up Jacob, and devoured him, and consumed him, and have made his habitation desolate.

- Jeremiah 10:24 Considering that God had revealed unto him the certitude of their captivity, Jer. 7:16, he only prayeth, that he would punish them with mercy, which Isaiah calleth in measure, Isa. 27:8, measuring his rods by their infirmity, 1 Cor. 10:13, for here by judgment is meant not only the punishment, but also the merciful moderation of the same, as Jer. 30:11.
- Jeremiah 10:25 Forasmuch as God cannot only be known and glorified by his mercy, that he useth toward his Church, but also by his justice in punishing his enemies, he prayeth that this glory may fully appear both in the one and the other, Ps. 79:6.
Jeremiah 10:24-25
New International Version
24 Discipline me, Lord, but only in due measure—
not in your anger,(A)
or you will reduce me to nothing.(B)
25 Pour out your wrath on the nations(C)
that do not acknowledge you,
on the peoples who do not call on your name.(D)
For they have devoured(E) Jacob;
they have devoured him completely
and destroyed his homeland.(F)
