Jeremiah 11:20

A Warning For The People Of Anathoth

¹⁹ I was like an unquestioning lamb brought to the slaughter. I did not know that they were plotting against me. They were saying: Let us destroy the tree with its fruit. Let us cut Jeremiah off from this world of the living so that we will not be reminded of him anymore. ²⁰ But, O Lord of hosts, who judges righteously,
Who tries the feelings and the heart,
Let me see Your vengeance on them,
For to You have I committed my cause. ²¹ This is what Jehovah says: The people of Anathoth want to kill you. They say: Do not prophesy in the name of Jehovah, or we will kill you.
