New King James Version
Jeremiah 15
1 Then the Lord said to me, “Even if Moses and Samuel stood before Me, My mind would not be favorable toward this people. Cast them out of My sight, and let them go forth. 2 And such as are for the captivity, to the captivity.” ’ 3 “And I will appoint over them four forms of destruction,” says the Lord: “the sword to slay, the dogs to drag, the birds of the heavens and the beasts of the earth to devour and destroy. 4 I will hand them over to trouble, to all kingdoms of the earth, because of Manasseh the son of Hezekiah, king of Judah, for what he did in Jerusalem. 5 Or who will turn aside to ask how you are doing? 6 I am weary of relenting! 7 Since they do not return from their ways. 8 I will cause anguish and terror to fall on them suddenly. 9 Before their enemies,” says the Lord. 10 Every one of them curses me. 11 In the time of adversity and in the time of affliction. 12 The northern iron and the bronze? 13 Throughout your territories. 14 Which shall burn upon you.” 15 Know that for Your sake I have suffered rebuke. 16 O Lord God of hosts. 17 For You have filled me with indignation. 18 As waters that fail? 19 But you must not return to them. 20 And deliver you,” says the Lord. 21 And I will redeem you from the grip of the terrible.”
