Jeremiah 17:14-18 - Jeremiah's Plea

¹⁴ Heal me, Jehovah, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved: for thou art my praise. ¹⁵ Behold, these say unto me, Where is the word of Jehovah? let it then come! ¹⁶ But as for me, I have not hastened from being a shepherd in following thee, neither have I desired the fatal day, thou knowest: that which came out of my lips was before thy face. ¹⁷ Be not a terror unto me: thou art my refuge in the day of evil. ¹⁸ Let them be ashamed that persecute me, but let not me be ashamed; let them be dismayed, but let not me be dismayed; bring upon them the day of evil, and break them with a double breaking.
