Jeremiah 15:14-16
Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition
14 And I will bring thy enemies out of a land, which thou knowest not: for a fire is kindled in my rage, it shall burn upon you.
15 O Lord, thou knowest, remember me, and visit me, and defend me from them that persecute me, do not defend me in thy patience: know that for thy sake I have sufferred reproach.
16 Thy words were found, and I did eat them, and thy word was to me a joy and gladness of my heart: for thy name is called upon me, O Lord God of hosts.

Jeremiah 15:14-16
New International Version
14 I will enslave you to your enemies
in[a] a land you do not know,(A)
for my anger will kindle a fire(B)
that will burn against you.”
15 Lord, you understand;
remember me and care for me.
Avenge me on my persecutors.(C)
You are long-suffering(D)—do not take me away;
think of how I suffer reproach for your sake.(E)
16 When your words came, I ate(F) them;
they were my joy and my heart’s delight,(G)
for I bear your name,(H)
Lord God Almighty.
