Jeremiah's Plea

16 And I withdrew not from following after thee; I desired not man's day, thou knewest: the going forth of my lips was straight before thee. 17 Thou wilt not be for a terror to me; thou my refuge in the evil day. 18 They pursuing me shall be ashamed, and I shall not be ashamed: they shall be dismayed, and I shall not be dismayed: bring upon them the evil day, and break them with a double breaking.
