Jeremiah 10:23-25

Jeremiah’s Prayer 23LORD, I know that people’s lives are not their own; it is not for them to direct their steps.

24Discipline me, LORD, but only in due measure— not in your anger, or you will reduce me to nothing. 25Pour out your wrath on the nations that do not acknowledge you, on the peoples who do not call on your name. For they have devoured Jacob; they have devoured him completely and destroyed his homeland.
