Jeremiah 18:19-21
EasyEnglish Bible
19 ‘Please listen to me, Lord!
Hear what my enemies are saying against me.
20 I have done good things for them,
but they are paying me back with evil things.
They have already dug a grave for me!
Remember that I stood in front of you
and I asked you to forgive them.
I asked you not to be angry with them.
21 So now I ask you to punish them!
Yes, may famine kill their children.
May they die in war.
May wives no longer have husbands or children.
May disease kill the old men.
May the young men die in battle.

Jeremiah 18:19-21
New International Version
19 Listen to me, Lord;
hear what my accusers(A) are saying!
20 Should good be repaid with evil?(B)
Yet they have dug a pit(C) for me.
Remember that I stood(D) before you
and spoke in their behalf(E)
to turn your wrath away from them.
21 So give their children over to famine;(F)
hand them over to the power of the sword.(G)
Let their wives be made childless and widows;(H)
let their men be put to death,
their young men(I) slain by the sword in battle.
