Jeremiah Persecuted

18 Then they said, (A)“Come and let us devise plans against Jeremiah; (B)for the law shall not perish from the priest, nor counsel from the wise, nor the word from the prophet. Come and let us attack him with the tongue, and let us not give heed to any of his words.”

19 Give heed to me, O Lord,
And listen to the voice of those who contend with me!
20 (C)Shall evil be repaid for good?
For they have (D)dug a pit for my life.
Remember that I (E)stood before You
To speak good [a]for them,
To turn away Your wrath from them.
