Jeremiah 20:12
20:12 O Lord who rules over all, 1 you test and prove the righteous.
You see into people’s hearts and minds. 2
Pay them back for what they have done
because I trust you to vindicate my cause.
1 tn Heb “Yahweh of armies.”
2 tn Heb “Lord of armies, the one who tests the righteous, who sees kidneys and heart.” The sentence has been broken up to avoid a long and complex English sentence. The translation is more in keeping with contemporary English style.
