Jeremiah 11:18-20

Living Bible

¹⁸ Then the Lord told me all about their plans and showed me their evil plots. ¹⁹ I had been as unsuspecting as a lamb or ox on the way to slaughter. I didn’t know that they were planning to kill me! “Let’s destroy this man and all his messages,” they said. “Let’s kill him so that his name will be forever forgotten.”

²⁰ O Lord Almighty, you are just. See the hearts and motives of these men. Repay them for all that they have planned! I look to you for justice.
