12 O house of David , thus says the Lord : " Administer justice every morning ; And deliver the person who has been robbed from the power of his oppressor , That My wrath may not go forth like fire And burn with none to extinguish it, Because e of the evil of their deeds .
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Jeremiah 21:12
Commentary on Jeremiah 21:11-14
(Read Jeremiah 21:11-14)
