Jeremiah 21:12-14
GOD’S WORD Translation
12 descendants of David. This is what the Lord says:
Judge fairly every morning.
Rescue those who have been robbed from those who oppress them.
Otherwise, my fury will break out and burn like fire.
No one will be able to put it out
because of the evil things you have done.
13 “ ‘I’m against you, Jerusalem.
You are the city that is in the valley
and on the rock in the plain,’ ”
declares the Lord.
“ ‘But you ask, “Who can attack us?
Who can enter our places of refuge?”
14 “ ‘I will punish you because of the evil things you have done,’ ”
declares the Lord.
“ ‘I will start a fire in your forests,
and it will burn up everything around you.’ ”
Jeremiah 21:12-14
New International Version
12 This is what the Lord says to you, house of David:
“‘Administer justice(A) every morning;
rescue from the hand of the oppressor(B)
the one who has been robbed,
or my wrath will break out and burn like fire(C)
because of the evil(D) you have done—
burn with no one to quench(E) it.
13 I am against(F) you, Jerusalem,
you who live above this valley(G)
on the rocky plateau, declares the Lord—
you who say, “Who can come against us?
Who can enter our refuge?”(H)
14 I will punish you as your deeds(I) deserve,
declares the Lord.
I will kindle a fire(J) in your forests(K)
that will consume everything around you.’”
