Jeremiah 20:10-12
New Catholic Bible
10 For I hear many whispering,
“Terror surrounds us.
Denounce him! Let us denounce him!”
All those who were my close friends
are waiting for me to stumble, saying,
“Perhaps we can trick him,
and we will be able to prevail
and take our revenge against him.”
11 But the Lord is at my side
like a mighty warrior.
Therefore, my persecutors will stumble,
and they will not prevail.
Because of their failure,
they will be greatly shamed,
and the disgrace that they will endure
will be everlasting and unforgettable.
12 O Lord of hosts, you test the righteous
and probe the mind and the heart.
Let me behold your retribution on them,
for to you I have committed my cause.

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.
