Jeremiah 10:22-24

GOD’S WORD Translation

²² The report has arrived.
A tremendous uproar is coming from the land of the north.
Its army will destroy Judah’s cities
and make them homes for jackals.
²³ O Lord, I know that the way humans act is not under their control.
Humans do not direct their steps as they walk.
²⁴ Correct me, O Lord, but please be fair.
Don’t correct me when you’re angry.
Otherwise, you’ll reduce me to nothing.
