Jeremiah 15:14-16
Revised Standard Version
14 I will make you serve your enemies in a land which you do not know, for in my anger a fire is kindled which shall burn for ever.”
15 O Lord, thou knowest;
remember me and visit me,
and take vengeance for me on my persecutors.
In thy forbearance take me not away;
know that for thy sake I bear reproach.
16 Thy words were found, and I ate them,
and thy words became to me a joy
and the delight of my heart;
for I am called by thy name,
O Lord, God of hosts.
