Jeremiah 20:10

EasyEnglish Bible

¹⁰ I hear what people are saying against me.
    They say, ‘Terror is all around him!^[a]
    We should tell the officers what he is saying.’
All my friends want me to make a mistake
    so that they can accuse me.
They say, ‘Perhaps we can cause him to say something wrong.
    Then we will have power over him.
    We will pay him back for the trouble he has given us.’
