Jeremiah 16:18 (Amplified Bible)
16:18 First [before I bring them back to their land] I will doubly recompense and punish them for their iniquity and their sin, because they have polluted My land with the carcasses of their detestable idols and with the abominable things offered to false gods with which they have filled My inheritance.
Let us see the vengeance on them.

11:20 But, O Lord of hosts, Who judges rightly and justly, Who tests the heart and the mind, let me see Your vengeance on them, for to You I have revealed and committed my cause [rolling it upon You].
It's forbidden for us, CHRISTians to take revenge or vengeance on our enemies but it's ok for us to pray for them like these, the only thing that can stop this is when they accepted the LORD JESUS because they can't be harmed by any curse because JESUS will take all the curse off them. Two people in the bible are famous for praying like this: one is Jeremiah and the other is King David.
Galatians 3:13 (Amplified Bible)
3:13 Christ purchased our freedom [redeeming us] from the curse (doom) of the Law [and its condemnation] by [Himself] becoming a curse for us, for it is written [in the Scriptures], Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree (is crucified);
IX. CONCLUSION:
Praise, worship and thank You very much LORD JESUS for we don't have to take vengeance on our enemies but You will be the One to do it for us. It's really a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the Living GOD.
