11 The Lord said,“Most certainly I will strengthen you for good.Most certainly I will cause the enemy to make supplication to you in the time of eviland in the time of affliction.
12 Can one break iron,even iron from the north, and bronze?
13 I will give your substance and your treasures for a plunder without price,and that for all your sins,even in all your borders.
14 I will make them to pass with your enemies into a land which you don’t know;for a fire is kindled in my anger,which will burn on you.”
15 Lord, you know.Remember me, visit me,and avenge me of my persecutors.You are patient, so don’t take me away.Know that for your sake I have suffered reproach.
16 Your words were found,and I ate them.Your words were to me a joy and the rejoicing of my heart,for I am called by your name, the Lord, God of Hosts.
17 I didn’t sit in the assembly of those who make merry and rejoice.I sat alone because of your hand,for you have filled me with indignation.
