Jeremiah 15:15-18

15 ^aO Lord, you know;
^bremember me and visit me,
^c, ^dand take vengeance for me on my persecutors.
In your forbearance take me not away;
^eknow that ^ffor your sake I bear reproach.
16 Your words were found, ^gand I ate them,
and ^hyour words became to me a joy
and the delight of my heart,
ⁱfor I am called by your name,
O Lord, God of hosts.
17 ^jI did not sit in the company of revelers,
nor did I rejoice;
^kI sat alone, because your hand was upon me,
for you had filled me with indignation.
18 Why is my pain unceasing,
^lmy wound incurable,
refusing to be healed?
Will you be to me ^mlike a deceitful brook,
like waters that fail?
