Jeremiah 17:12-18

12A gloriousH3519 highH4791 throneH3678 from the beginningH7223 is the placeH4725 of our sanctuaryH4720. 13O YhwhH3068, the hopeH4723 of IsraelH3478, all that forsakeH5800 thee shall be ashamedH954, and they that departH3249 from meH5493 shall be writtenH3789 in the earthH776, because they have forsakenH5800 YhwhH3068, the fountainH4726 of livingH2416 watersH4325. 14HealH7495 me, O YhwhH3068, and I shall be healedH7495; saveH3467 me, and I shall be savedH3467: for thou art my praiseH8416.

15Behold, they sayH559 unto me, Where is the wordH1697 of YhwhH3068? let it comeH935 now. 16As for me, I have not hastenedH213 from being a pastorH7462 to followH310 thee: neither have I desiredH183 the woefulH605 dayH3117; thou knowestH3045: that which came outH4161 of my lipsH8193 was right beforeH5227 theeH6440.1 17Be not a terrorH4288 unto me: thou art my hopeH4268 in the dayH3117 of evilH7451. 18Let them be confoundedH954 that persecuteH7291 me, but let not me be confoundedH954: let them be dismayedH2865, but let not me be dismayedH2865: bringH935 upon them the dayH3117 of evilH7451, and destroyH7665 them with doubleH4932 destructionH7670.2
