Jeremiah 10:23-25 - Jeremiah's Prayer
23 Now I know, O LORD, that it is not in man's power to order his own ways, or to rule his own steps and goings. 24 Therefore chasten thou us, O LORD; but with favour, and not in thy wrath. Bring us not utterly to naught. 25 Pour out thine indignation rather upon the Gentiles, that know thee not, and upon the people that call not on thy name: And that because they have consumed, devoured and destroyed Jacob, and have rooted out his glory.
