Jeremiah 18:20-21

201Should good be repaid with evil? For they have 2dug a pit for 3me. Remember how I 4stood before You To speak good on their behalf, So as to turn away Your wrath from them.21Therefore, 5give their children over to famine And deliver them up to the 6power of the sword; And let their wives become 7childless and 8widowed. Let their men also be smitten to death, Their 9young men struck down by the sword in battle.
