Jeremiah 16:19 in Context — Jeremiah 16
17 Pois meus olhos estão sobre todos seus caminhos; eles não estão escondidos de mim, nem a maldade deles está oculta de diante de meus olhos.
18 Mas primeiro pagarei em dobro a iniquidade e o pecado deles, pois contaminaram minha terra com os cadáveres de suas coisas detestáveis, e encheram minha herança de suas abominações.
19 Ó SENHOR, fortaleza minha, e força minha, e meu refúgio no tempo da aflição; a ti virão nações desde os confins da terra, e dirão: Certamente o que nossos pais possuíam era mentira e inutilidade; não havia nessas coisas proveito algum.
20 Pode, por acaso, o homem fazer deuses para si? Eles, porém, não são deuses.
21 Portanto eis que desta vez lhes farei conhecer, lhes farei conhecer minha mão e meu poder, e saberão que EU-SOU é o meu nome.
