Jeremiah 20:10-12
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
10 Yes, I hear the whisperings of many:
“Terror on every side!
Denounce! let us denounce him!”
All those who were my friends
are on the watch for any misstep of mine.
“Perhaps he can be tricked; then we will prevail,
and take our revenge on him.”(A)
11 But the Lord is with me, like a mighty champion:
my persecutors will stumble, they will not prevail.
In their failure they will be put to utter shame,
to lasting, unforgettable confusion.(B)
12 Lord of hosts, you test the just,
you see mind and heart,
Let me see the vengeance you take on them,
for to you I have entrusted my cause.(C)

Jeremiah 20:10-12
New International Version
10 I hear many whispering,
“Terror(A) on every side!
Denounce(B) him! Let’s denounce him!”
All my friends(C)
are waiting for me to slip,(D) saying,
“Perhaps he will be deceived;
then we will prevail(E) over him
and take our revenge(F) on him.”
11 But the Lord(G) is with me like a mighty warrior;
so my persecutors(H) will stumble and not prevail.(I)
They will fail and be thoroughly disgraced;(J)
their dishonor will never be forgotten.
12 Lord Almighty, you who examine the righteous
and probe the heart and mind,(K)
let me see your vengeance(L) on them,
for to you I have committed(M) my cause.
