Jeremiah 18:16-18

Revised Geneva Translation

¹⁶ “and making their land desolate and a perpetual derision, everyone who passes by it will be astonished and wag his head.

¹⁷ “I will scatter them with an east wind before the enemy. I will show them My Back, and not My Face, in the day of their destruction.”

¹⁸ ‘Then they said, “Come, and let us imagine some device against Jeremiah! For the Law shall not perish from the Priest, nor counsel from the wise, nor the Word from the Prophet. Come and let us strike him with the tongue! And let us not consider any of his words!”’”
