Jeremiah's Complaint

10 ¹Woe is me, my mother, that you bore me, a man of strife and contention to the whole land! ²I have not lent, nor have I borrowed, yet all of them curse me.

11 The LORD said, "Have I not^a set you free for their good? Have I not pleaded for you before the enemy in the time of trouble and in the time of distress?

12 Can one break iron, iron ³from the north, and bronze?

13 ⁴"Your wealth and your treasures I will give as ⁵spoil, without price, for all your sins, throughout all your territory.

14 I will make you serve your enemies ⁶in a land that you do not know, ⁷for in my anger a fire is kindled that shall burn forever."

15 ⁸O LORD, you know; ⁹remember me and visit me, and take vengeance for me on my persecutors. In your forbearance take me not away; ¹⁰know that ¹¹for your sake I bear reproach.

16 Your words were found, ¹²and I ate them, and ¹³your words became to me a joy and the delight of my heart, ¹⁴for I am called by your name, O LORD, God of hosts.

17 ¹⁵I did not sit in the company of revelers, nor did I rejoice; ¹⁶I sat alone, because your hand was upon me, for you had filled me with indignation.

18 Why is my pain unceasing, ¹⁷my wound incurable, refusing to be healed? Will you be to me ¹⁸like a deceitful brook, like waters that fail?

19 Therefore thus says the LORD: ¹⁹"If you return, I will restore you, and you shall ²⁰stand before me. If you utter what is precious, and not what is worthless, you shall be as my mouth. They shall turn to you, but you shall not turn to them.

20 ²¹And I will make you to this people a fortified wall of bronze; they will fight against you, ²²but they shall not prevail over you, ²³for I am with you to save you and deliver you, declares the LORD.

21 ²⁴I will deliver you out of the hand of the wicked, and redeem you from the grasp of ²⁵the ruthless."
