Jeremiah 18:20-23 Should good be repaid with evil? Yet they have dug a pit to take my life. Remember! I stood before you and spoke good on their behalf in order to turn your wrath away from them.

ISV⁽ⁱ⁾ ²⁰ Should good be repaid with evil? Yet they have dug a pit to take my life. Remember! I stood before you and spoke good on their behalf in order to turn your wrath away from them. ²¹ Therefore, make their children undergo famine, and deliver them over to death in time of war. May their women be childless widows! May their men be slaughtered! May their young men be slain by the sword in battle! ²² Let a cry be heard from their houses because you have brought a raiding party against them suddenly. For they have dug a pit to capture me and have set traps for my feet. ²³ But you, LORD, know all their plots to kill me. Don’t forgive their iniquity, and don’t erase their sin from your sight. Let them stumble before you. When it’s time for you to be angry, act against them!
