Jeremiah 17:12-18 NIV

Jeremiah 17:12-18

A glorious throne, exalted from the beginning,

is the place of our sanctuary.

Lord, you are the hope of Israel;

all who forsake you will be put to shame.

Those who turn away from you will be written in the dust

because they have forsaken the Lord,

the spring of living water.

Heal me, Lord, and I will be healed;

save me and I will be saved,

for you are the one I praise.

They keep saying to me,

“Where is the word of the Lord?

Let it now be fulfilled!”

I have not run away from being your shepherd;

you know I have not desired the day of despair.

What passes my lips is open before you.

Do not be a terror to me;

you are my refuge in the day of disaster.

Let my persecutors be put to shame,

but keep me from shame;

let them be terrified,

but keep me from terror.

Bring on them the day of disaster;

destroy them with double destruction.
