Jeremiah 11:21-23

Good News Translation

²¹ The people of Anathoth wanted me killed, and they told me that they would kill me if I kept on proclaiming the Lord's message. ²² So the Lord Almighty said, “I will punish them! Their young men will be killed in war; their children will die of starvation. ²³ I have set a time for bringing disaster on the people of Anathoth, and when that time comes, none of them will survive.”
