JER 6:26 Removed trailing space in v~: O daughter of my people, gird thee with sackcloth, And roll thyself in ashes! Make thee mourning as for an only son, Most bitter lamentation! For suddenly shall the spoiler come upon us.

JER 6:27 Removed trailing space in v~: I have set thee, like a tower, for an assayer among my people, That thou mayst know and try their way.

JER 6:28 Removed trailing space in v~: They are all stubborn revolters, Slanderers are they, brass and iron; They are all corrupt.

JER 10:25 Removed trailing space in v~: Pour out thy wrath on the nations which acknowledge thee not, And on the kingdoms which call not on thy name! For they have devoured Jacob; They have devoured and consumed him, And laid waste his dwelling-place.”

JER 11:17 Removed trailing space in v~: For Jehovah of hosts, who planted thee, Hath pronounced evil against thee, On account of the wickedness of the house of Israel and of Judah, which they have committed In provoking me to anger by burning incense to Baal.

JER 11:18 Removed trailing space in v~: Jehovah made it known to me, and I knew it; Thou didst show me their machinations!

JER 11:19 Removed trailing space in v~: For I was like a tame lamb, that is led to the slaughter, And knew not that they had formed plots against me, [[saying,]] “Let us destroy the tree with its fruit, Let us cut him off from the land of the living, That his name may no more be remembered!”

JER 20:7 Removed trailing space in v~: Thou didst persuade me, O Jehovah, and I was persuaded; Thou wast stronger than I, and didst prevail. But I am in derision daily, Every one mocketh me.

JER 20:8 Removed trailing space in v~: For whenever I speak, I cry out on account of violence, And complain of oppression; For the word of Jehovah bringeth upon me reproach, And daily derision.

JER 20:9 Removed trailing space in v~: So I say, I will no more make mention of him, Nor speak any more in his name; But his word is in my heart like a burning fire, shut up in my bones, And I am weary with forbearing, And I cannot refrain.

JER 20:10 Removed trailing space in v~: For I hear the slander of many, terror on every side; “Tell us something against him, and we will denounce him.” All my familiar friends, they who leave not my side, [[say,]] “Perhaps he will be enticed, So that we may prevail against him, And take our revenge on him.”

JER 20:11 Removed trailing space in v~: But Jehovah is on my side, like a mighty champion, Therefore shall my persecutors stumble, and not prevail; They shall be covered with shame, because they act not wisely,—With everlasting shame, that shall not be forgotten.

JER 20:12 Removed trailing space in v~: O Jehovah of hosts, thou that provest the righteous, That seest the reins and the heart, Let me see thy vengeance on them, For to thee have I laid open my cause!

JER 20:13 Removed trailing space in v~: Sing to Jehovah! Praise ye Jehovah! For he delivereth the oppressed From the hand of evil-doers.

JER 20:14 Removed trailing space in v~: Cursed be the day on which I was born; Let not the day on which my mother bore me be blessed!

JER 20:15 Removed trailing space in v~: Cursed be the man who brought the tidings to my father, Saying, “A son is born to thee,” making him very glad!

JER 20:16 Removed trailing space in v~: Let that man be like the cities which Jehovah overthrew, and relented not; Let him hear an outcry in the morning, And an alarm at noontide;

JER 20:17 Removed trailing space in v~: Because he slew me not before I saw the light, So that my mother might have been my grave, And her womb have been great with me forever!

JER 20:18 Removed trailing space in v~: Wherefore came I forth from the womb, to see weariness and sorrow, And that my days might be consumed in shame?

JER 32:29 Removed trailing space in v~: And the Chaldaeans who fight against this city shall come and set this city on fire, and burn it, with the houses upon whose roofs they have offered incense to Baal, and poured out incense to other gods, to provoke me to anger.

JER 32:30 Removed trailing space in v~: For the children of Israel and the children of Judah have done nothing but evil before me from their youth; yea, the children of Israel have but provoked me to anger with the work of their hands, saith Jehovah.

JER 32:35 Removed trailing space in v~: And they have built the high places of Baal, which are in the valley of the son of Hinnom, to cause their sons and their daughters to pass through the fire to Moloch, which I commanded them not, neither came it into my mind, that they should practise their abomination, to cause Judah to sin.
