Jeremiah’s Complaint
1 uRighteous are you, O Lord,when I complain to you;
yet I would plead my case before you.
vWhy does the way of the wicked prosper?
Why do all wwho are treacherous thrive?
2You plant them, and they take root;
they grow and produce fruit;
xyou are near in their mouth
and far from their heart.
