Jeremiah 11:18-20

Revised Geneva Translation

¹⁸ And the LORD has taught me, and I know it. Then You showed me their practices.

¹⁹ But I was like a lamb, a bullock that is brought to the slaughter. And I did not know that they had devised this against me, saying, “Let us destroy the tree with its fruit, and cut him out of the land of the living, so that his name may be remembered no more.”

²⁰ But, O LORD of Hosts, Who judges righteously and tests the inner core and the heart, let me see Your vengeance on them! For to You have I opened my cause!
