Jeremiah 38:20
Thomson 1808
And Jeremias replied, Thou wilt not be delivered up to them, Hear the word of the Lord which I speak to thee and it will be better for thee and thy soul shall live.
Brenton 1851
Ephraim is a beloved son, a pleasing child to me: for because my words are in him, I will surely remember him: therefore I made haste to help him; I will surely have mercy upon him, saith the Lord.
Greek · Brenton
Υἱὸς ἀγαπητὸς Ἐφραὶμ, ἐμοὶ παιδίον ἐντρυφῶν, ὅτι ἀνθʼ ὧν οἱ λόγοι μου ἐν αὐτῷ, μνείᾳ μνησθήσομαι αὐτοῦ· διατοῦτο ἔσπευσα ἐπʼ αὐτῷ, ἐλεῶν ἐλεήσω αὐτὸν, φησὶ Κύριος.
