Jeremiah 20:11-14 New English Translation (NET)

11. But the Lord is with me to help me like an awe-inspiring warrior.Therefore those who persecute me will fail and will not prevail over me.They will be thoroughly disgraced because they did not succeed.Their disgrace will never be forgotten.

12. O Lord who rules over all, you test and prove the righteous.You see into people’s hearts and minds.Pay them back for what they have donebecause I trust you to vindicate my cause.

13. Sing to the Lord! Praise the Lord!For he rescues the oppressed from the clutches of evildoers.

14. Cursed be the day I was born!May that day not be blessed when my mother gave birth to me.
