Jeremiah 15:15-17 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

15. Lord, you understand.Remember me and take care of me.Punish for me the people who are hurting me.Don’t destroy me while you remain patient with them.Think about the pain I suffer for you, Lord.

16. Your words came to me, and I listened carefully to them.Your words made me very happy.I was happy because I am called by your name.Your name is the Lord God of heaven’s armies.

17. I never sat with the crowdas they laughed and had fun.I sat by myself because you were there.You filled me with anger at the evil around me.
