Lord, I told about the good things you did.\par I did not hide those things in my heart.\par Lord, I told people they can depend\par on you to save them.\par I did not hide your kindness and loyalty\par from the people in the assembly.\par
The Lord, the God of Israel, said these things to me: “Jeremiah, take this cup of wine from my hand. It is the wine of my anger. I am sending you to different nations. Make all those nations drink from this cup.
You will drink the poison in that cup.\par You will drink it to the last drop.\par You will throw down the glass\par and break it to pieces.\par And you will tear at your breasts\par from the pain.\par This will happen because\par I am the Lord and Master.\par And I said these things.\par
