Darby Translation
Jeremiah 18:19-21
Darby Translation
19 Jehovah, give heed to me, and listen to the voice of those that contend with me.
20 Shall evil be recompensed for good? For they have digged a pit for my soul. Remember how I stood before thee to speak good for them, to turn away thy wrath from them.
21 Therefore give up their children to the famine, and deliver them over to the power of the sword; and let their wives be bereaved of children and be widows; and let their men be swept off by death, their young men be smitten by the sword in battle.

hear what my accusers(A) are saying!
