Jeremiah 17:16 in Context — Jeremiah 17
14 Sara-me, ó SENHOR, e serei sarado; salva-me, e serei salvo; pois tu és meu louvor.
15 Eis que eles me dizem: Onde está a palavra do SENHOR? Cumpra-se ela agora!
16 Mas eu não me apressei para deixar de ser ser pastor após ti, nem desejei o dia de calamidade, tu o sabes. O que saiu de minha boca foi em tua presença.
17 Não sejas tu assombro para mim; tu és minha esperança no dia mal.
18 Envergonhem-se os que me perseguem, e eu não me envergonhe; assombre-se eles, e eu não me assombre: traze sobre eles o dia mal, e destrói-os com destruição dobrada.
