Jeremiah's Question

     Righteous are You, O Lord, when I plead with You; Yet let me talk with you about Your judgments.  Why does the way of the wicked prosper?  Why are those happy who deal so treacherously?  You have planted them, yes, they have taken root: They grow, yes, they bear fruit.  You are near in their mouth But far from their mind.  But You, O Lord, know me; You have seen me, And You have tested my heart toward You.
