Jeremiah 18:19-21
Expanded Bible
19 Lord, ·listen [pay attention] to me.
Listen to what my ·accusers [adversaries] are saying!
20 ·Good should not [L Should good…?] be paid back with evil,
but they have dug a pit ·in order to kill me [L for my life].
Remember that I stood before you
and asked you to do good things for these people
and to turn your anger away from them.
21 So now, ·let their children starve [L give their children to starvation],
and ·let their enemies kill them with swords [L give them over to the power of the sword].
Let their wives ·lose their children and husbands [L be childless and widows].
Let the men [C from Judah] be ·put to death [slain by pestilence]
and the young men be killed with swords in battle.
