Jeremiah 15:15-21

15O YhwhH3068, thou knowestH3045: rememberH2142 me, and visitH6485 me, and revengeH5358 me of my persecutorsH7291; take me not awayH3947 in thy longsufferingH750H639: knowH3045 that for thy sake I have sufferedH5375 rebukeH2781. 16Thy wordsH1697 were foundH4672, and I did eatH398 them; and thy wordH1697 was unto me the joyH8342 and rejoicingH8057 of mine heartH3824: for I am calledH7121 by thy nameH8034, O YhwhH3068 GodH430 of ArmiesH6635.1 17I satH3427 not in the assemblyH5475 of the mockersH7832, nor rejoicedH5937; I satH3427 aloneH910 becauseH6440 of thy handH3027: for thou hast filledH4390 me with indignationH2195. 18Why is my painH3511 perpetualH5331, and my woundH4347 incurableH605, which refusethH3985 to be healedH7495? wilt thou be altogether unto me as a liarH391, and as watersH4325 that failH539?2

19Therefore thus saithH559 YhwhH3068, If thou returnH7725, then will I bring thee againH7725, and thou shalt standH5975 beforeH6440 me: and if thou take forthH3318 the preciousH3368 from the vileH2151, thou shalt be as my mouthH6310: let them returnH7725 unto thee; but returnH7725 not thou unto them. 20And I will makeH5414 thee unto this peopleH5971 a fencedH1219 brasenH5178 wallH2346: and they shall fightH3898 against thee, but they shall not prevailH3201 against thee: for I am with thee to saveH3467 thee and to deliverH5337 thee, saithH5002 YhwhH3068. 21And I will deliverH5337 thee out of the handH3027 of the wickedH7451, and I will redeemH6299 thee out of the handH3709 of the terribleH6184.
