11 The Lord said: Truly I will set you free for good purposes.Truly I will cause the enemy to entreat youin the time of evil and in the time of affliction.
12 Can anyone break the northern ironor the bronze?
13 Your wealth and your treasuresI will give to the destroyer without price,and that for all your sins,even within all your borders.
14 I will make you to pass with your enemiesinto a land which you do not know;for a fire is kindled in My anger,which shall burn upon you.
15 O Lord, You who know, remember me,and take notice of me,and take vengeance on my persecutors.Because of your longsuffering, do not take me away.Know that for Your sake I have suffered rebuke.
16 Your words were found and I ate them.And Your word became to me the joy and rejoicing of my heart,for I am called by Your name,O Lord God of Hosts.
17 I did not sit in the assembly of mockers,nor did I rejoice;I sat alone because of Your hand,for You have filled me with indignation.
