Jeremiah 15:16-18
Authorized (King James) Version
16 Thy words were found, and I did eat them;
and thy word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of mine heart:
for I am called by thy name, O Lord God of hosts.
17 I sat not in the assembly of the mockers, nor rejoiced;
I sat alone because of thy hand:
for thou hast filled me with indignation.
18 Why is my pain perpetual, and my wound incurable,
which refuseth to be healed?
wilt thou be altogether unto me as a liar,
and as waters that fail?
Jeremiah 15:16-18
New International Version
16 When your words came, I ate(A) them;
they were my joy and my heart’s delight,(B)
for I bear your name,(C)
Lord God Almighty.
17 I never sat(D) in the company of revelers,
never made merry with them;
I sat alone because your hand(E) was on me
and you had filled me with indignation.
18 Why is my pain unending
and my wound grievous and incurable?(F)
You are to me like a deceptive brook,
like a spring that fails.(G)
