A plot against Yirmiyah

Yir 18:18–23

18:18 A plot against Yirmiyah

Southern kingdom

The people

18 Then the people said,

Come on, let’s decide what to do about Yirmiyah (Jeremiah),

because we have plenty of instructions from the priests,

advice from the wise men,

and messages from the prophets.

Yirmiyah

19 Yahweh, pay attention to me

and listen to the what my enemies are saying.

20 Should good be repaid with evil,

because they’re digging a pit for me?

Remember how I stood in front of you to tell you their good points—

to turn back your rage from them.

21 Therefore, hand their children over to famine,

and send war to punish them.

Let their wives be childless and become widowed,

≈ and let their husbands die from disease—

their young men killed in battle.

22 Let a cry of distress be heard from their houses

when you send raiders to surprise them,

because they’ve dug a pit to capture me in

and have hidden traps for me to step into.

23 But you, Yahweh, know all their deadly plots against me.

Don’t forgive their wickedness.

≈ Don’t erase their disobedience from your sight.

Let them be overthrown as you watch

at the time when you deal with them in your anger.
