Jeremiah 15:16-18

Revised Geneva Translation

¹⁶ Your Words were found and I ate them. And Your Word was to me the joy and rejoicing of my heart! For Your Name is called upon me, O LORD, God of Hosts!

¹⁷ I did not sit in the assembly of the mockers, nor did I rejoice, but sat alone, because of Your plague. For You have filled me with indignation.

¹⁸ Why is my heaviness continual and my plague desperate and cannot be healed? Are You as a liar to me, as waters that fail?
