Jeremiah Chapter 15 (Passion Bible)
1 Then Yahweh said to me: “Even if Moses and Samuel[1] stood before me to intercede for these people, I would not turn my heart back to them. Send them away from me and make them go.
2 And if they ask you, ‘Where are we to go?’ answer them, ‘Here is what Yahweh says:
3 For Yahweh says, “I will send them four destroyers—the sword to slay, the dogs to drag away, the wild animals to devour, and the birds of prey to consume them.
4 I will make them a horrible sight that will shock the entire world because of the wicked things King Manasseh son of Hezekiah of Judah did in Jerusalem.”[2]
5 Yahweh says,
6 I, Yahweh, say to you:
7 I threw you to the wind like straw,[3]
8 Their widows became more numerous
9 She who was honored to have seven children[5] grows faint;
10 My mother, how terrible that you ever bore me—
11 Yahweh answered me:
12 “Will a man break the hardest iron or bronze?[8]
13 I will turn over your wealth and your treasures
14 And I will make you serve your enemies
15 Then I said,
16 When you speak to me,[11] I devour every word.[12]
17 I haven’t joined the crowd at their merry celebrations
18 Why must my pain be endless?
19 Here is what Yahweh said to me:
20 They will fight and attack you,
21 “I will save you from the power of the wicked
