14 And I will make you serve your enemies in a land that you do not know, for a fire will kindle in my anger. Upon you it will be kindled."
15 You who know, O Yahweh, remember me, and attend to me, and take revenge for me against my persecutors ⌊in your forbearance⌋.* You must take me away. Know that I am carrying disgrace because of you.
16 Your words were found and I ate them, and your words became to me as jubilation, even as the joy of my heart, for your name is called on me, O Yahweh God of hosts.
17 I sat not in the assembly of jokers, nor did I exult. Because of the ⌊presence⌋* of your hand I sat alone, for you filled me with indignation.
18 Why is my pain endless, and my wound incurable? It refuses to become healed. Truly you are to me like a deceitful brook, waters that are not trustworthy.
19 Therefore thus says Yahweh,
"If you turn back, then I will take you back. You will stand ⌊before me⌋.* And if you utter what is precious and not what is worthless, you will be as my mouth. They will turn back to you, and you will not turn back to them. 20 And I will make you to this people a wall of fortified bronze, and they will fight against you, but they will not prevail over you, for I am with you, to save you, and to deliver you," ⌊declares⌋* Yahweh.
