Jeremiah 20:10-12
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition
10 For I hear many whispering:
‘Terror is all around!
Denounce him! Let us denounce him!’
All my close friends
are watching for me to stumble.
‘Perhaps he can be enticed,
and we can prevail against him,
and take our revenge on him.’
11 But the Lord is with me like a dread warrior;
therefore my persecutors will stumble,
and they will not prevail.
They will be greatly shamed,
for they will not succeed.
Their eternal dishonour
will never be forgotten.
12 O Lord of hosts, you test the righteous,
you see the heart and the mind;
let me see your retribution upon them,
for to you I have committed my cause.

“Terror(A) on every side!
Denounce(B) him! Let’s denounce him!”

“Perhaps he will be deceived;
then we will prevail(E) over him
and take our revenge(F) on him.”

their dishonor will never be forgotten.

and probe the heart and mind,(K)
let me see your vengeance(L) on them,
for to you I have committed(M) my cause.
