Jeremiah 15:10-12

New American Standard Bible

^10 (A)Woe to me, my mother, that you have given birth to me
As a ^(B)man of strife and a man of contention to all the land!
I have not ^(C)lent, nor have people lent money to me,
Yet everyone curses me.
¹¹ The Lord said, “I will certainly ^(D)set you free for purposes of good;
I will certainly make the ^(E)enemy plead with you
In a time of disaster and a time of distress.

¹² “Can anyone smash iron,
^(F)Iron from the north, or bronze?
