Jeremiah 18:21 in Context — Jeremiah 18

19 Ó SENHOR, presta atenção a mim, e ouve a voz dos que brigam comigo.

20 Por acaso se pagará ao bem com o mal? Pois já cavaram uma cova para a minha alma! Lembra-te que me pus diante de ti para falar pelo bem deles, para desviar deles a tua ira.

21 Portanto entrega os filhos deles à fome, e derrama-os pelo poder da espada; e restem suas mulheres sem filhos e viúvas; e seus maridos sejam postos a morte, e seus rapazes sejam feridos à espada na guerra.

22 Ouçam-se gritos de suas casas, quando tu trouxeres tropas contra eles de repente; pois cavaram uma cova para me prender, e armaram laços para meus pés.

23 Mas tu, SENHOR, conheces todo o plano deles contra mim para me matar; não perdoes sua maldade, nem apagues o pecado deles de diante de tua presença, e tropecem diante de ti; faze [assim] com eles no tempo de tua ira.
