Result of Unfaithfulness (Jeremiah 2:19) Good News Translation

19  Your own evil will punish you, and your turning from me will condemn you.
      You will learn how bitter and wrong it is to abandon me, the Lord your God,
      and no longer to remain loyal to me.
      I, the Sovereign Lord Almighty, have spoken.

10  All of you that have reverence for the Lord

      and obey the words of the servant, the path you walkdmay be dark indeed,

      but trust in the Lord, rely on your God.

11  All of you that plot to destroy others will be destroyed by your own plots.

      The Lord himself will make this happen, you will suffer a miserable fate.

God is Near (Isaiah 50:7-9) Good News Bible

7  But their insults cannot hurt me because the Sovereign Lord give me help
    I brace myself to endure them.
    I know that I will not be disgraced.
8  for God is near, and he will prove me innocent.
    Does anyone dare bring charges against me?
    Let us go to court together!
    Let him bring his accusation!
9  The Sovereign Lord himself defends me-----
     who then, can prove me guilty?
     All my accusers will disappear, they will vanish like moth eatencloth.
