Then they said , "
Come ,
let us make plots against Jeremiah ,
for the law shall not perish from the priest ,
nor counsel from the wise ,
nor the word from the prophet .
Come ,
let us smite him with the tongue ,
and let us not heed any of his words ."
*
Give heed to me ,
O LORD ,
and hearken to my plea .
*
Is evil a recompense for good ?
Yet they have dug a pit for my life .
Remember how I stood before thee to speak good for them ,
to turn away thy wrath from them .
