Plot against Jeremiah

18 Then certain ones said, “Come, let’s make plans against Jeremiah,(A) for instruction will never be lost from the priest,(B) or counsel from the wise, or a word from the prophet.(C) Come, let’s denounce him[a] and pay no attention to all his words.”

19 Pay attention to me, Lord.

20 Should good be repaid with evil?
Yet they have dug a pit for me.(E)
Remember how I stood before you
to speak good on their behalf,
to turn your anger from them.
