kjv Jeremiah:11:18-23 SEEK
Seeker Overlay ON
*
And the LORD hath given me knowledge of it ,
and I know it :
then thou shewedst me their doings .
*
But I was like a lamb or an ox that is brought to the slaughter ;
and I knew not that they had devised devices against me ,
saying ,
Let us destroy the tree with the fruit thereof ,
and let us cut him off from the land of the living ,
that his name may be no more remembered .
*
But ,
O LORD of hosts ,
that judgest righteously ,
that triest the reins and the heart ,
let me see thy vengeance on them :
for unto thee have I revealed my cause .
*
Therefore thus saith the LORD of the men of Anathoth ,
that seek thy life ,
saying ,
Prophesy not in the name of the LORD ,
that thou die not by our hand :
*
Therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts ,
Behold ,
I will punish them :
the young men shall die by the sword ;
their sons and their daughters shall die by famine :
*
And there shall be no remnant of them :
for I will bring evil upon the men of Anathoth ,
even the year of their visitation .
