Jeremiah 12:3 in Context — Jeremiah 12
1 Justo és tu, SENHOR, mesmo quando eu discuto contigo; falarei, porém, de juízos contigo. Por que o caminho dos perversos prospera, e todos os que agem enganosamente têm boa vida?
2 Tu os plantaste, e firmaram raízes; eles progridem, e dão fruto; tu estás perto de suas bocas, porém longe de seus sentimentos.
3 Mas tu, SENHOR, me conheces; tu me vês, e provas o meu coração para contigo. Arranca-os como a ovelhas para o matadouro, e reserva-os para o dia da matança.
4 Até quando lamentará a terra, e a erva de todo o campo ficará seca? Pela maldade dos que nela habitam, os animais e as aves perecem; porque dizem: Ele não verá ele nosso fim.
5 Se ao correres com os que estão a pé, eles te cansam, como competirás com os cavalos? E se [somente] em terra de paz te sentes seguro, como agirás tu nos matagais junto ao Jordão?
