Jeremiah 11:18-20
18
Plot Against Jeremiah
Because the Lord revealed their plot to me, I knew it, for at that time he showed me what they were doing.
19
I had been like a gentle lamb led to the slaughter; I did not realize that they had plotted against me, saying,
“Let us destroy the tree and its fruit;
let us cut him off from the land of the living,
that his name be remembered no more.”
20
But, O Lord Almighty, you who judge righteously
and test the heart and mind,
let me see your vengeance upon them,
for to you I have committed my cause.
