Jeremiah 20:11-13

Contemporary English Version

¹¹ But you, Lord,
are a mighty soldier,
    standing at my side.
Those troublemakers
will fall down and fail—
    terribly embarrassed,
    forever ashamed.

¹² Lord All-Powerful,
    you test those who do right,
and you know every heart
    and mind.
I have told you my complaints,
so let me watch you
    take revenge on my enemies.
¹³ I sing praises to you, Lord.
You rescue the oppressed
    from the wicked.
