Jeremiah’s Prayer
Righteous are You, O LORD, that I would plead my case with You;
Indeed I would discuss matters of justice with You:
Why has the way of the wicked prospered?
Why are all those who deal in treachery at ease?

Drag them off like sheep for the slaughter
And set them apart for a day of carnage!

How long is the land to mourn
And the vegetation of the countryside to wither?
For the wickedness of those who dwell in it,
Animals and birds have been snatched away,
Because men have said, “He will not see our latter ending.”

Then how can you compete with horses?
If you fall down in a land of peace,
How will you do in the thicket of the Jordan?

Коли ти втїкав перед пішими та й утомився, як же втїкати меш навзаводи з комонником? і коли тілько здавалось тобі, що ти безпечен в затишній країнї, то що чинити меш, як розбурхається Йордань?

Even they have dealt treacherously with you,
Even they have cried aloud after you.
Do not believe them, although they may say nice things to you.”

Because no man lays it to heart.
