ylt - Jeremiah:20:7-18

ylt@Jeremiah:20:7 @Thou hast persuaded me, O Jehovah, and I am persuaded; Thou hast hardened me, and dost prevail, I have been for a laughter all the day, Every one is mocking at me,

ylt@Jeremiah:20:8 @Because from the time I speak I cry out, 'Violence and destruction,' I cry, For the word of Jehovah hath been to me For reproach and for derision all the day.

ylt@Jeremiah:20:9 @And I said, 'I do not mention Him, Nor do I speak any more in His name,' And it hath been in my heart As a burning fire shut up in my bones, And I have been weary of containing, And I am not able.

ylt@Jeremiah:20:10 @For I have heard the evil report of many, Fear [is] round about: 'Declare, and we declare it,' All mine allies are watching [for] my halting, 'Perhaps he is enticed, and we prevail over him, And we take our vengeance out of him.'

ylt@Jeremiah:20:11 @And Jehovah [is] with me, as a terrible mighty one, Therefore my persecutors stumble and prevail not, They have been exceedingly ashamed, For they have not acted wisely, Confusion age-during is not forgotten.

ylt@Jeremiah:20:12 @And, O Jehovah of Hosts, trier of the righteous, Beholder of reins and heart, I do see Thy vengeance out of them, For unto Thee I have revealed my cause.

ylt@Jeremiah:20:13 @Sing ye to Jehovah, praise Jehovah, For He hath delivered the soul of the needy From the hand of evil doers.

ylt@Jeremiah:20:14 @Cursed [is] the day in which I was born, The day that my mother bare me, Let it not be blessed!

ylt@Jeremiah:20:15 @Cursed [is] the man who bore tidings [to] my father, saying, 'Born to thee hath been a child -- a male,' Making him very glad!

ylt@Jeremiah:20:16 @Then hath that man been as the cities, That Jehovah overthrew, and repented not, And he hath heard a cry at morning, And a shout at time of noon.

ylt@Jeremiah:20:17 @Because he hath not put me to death from the womb, And my mother is to me -- my grave, And her womb a pregnancy age-during.

ylt@Jeremiah:20:18 @Why [is] this? from the womb I have come out, To see labour and sorrow, Yea, consumed in shame are my days!
