Jeremiah 5:28

They do not defend the rights of the poor.

because I trust you to vindicate my cause.”

Jeremiah 14:22

So we put our hopes in you

because you alone do all this.”

Jeremiah 15:8

against the mothers of their young men.

I will cause anguish and terror

to fall suddenly upon them.

50:34 But the one who will rescue them is strong.

He is known as the Lord who rules over all.

As a result he will bring peace and rest to the earth,

but trouble and turmoil to the people who inhabit Babylonia.
