Keep your feet from being barefoot

And your throat from thirst;

But you said, ‘^aIt is ¹hopeless!

No! For I have ^bloved strangers,

And after them I will walk.’

Jeremiah 18:12

12 But ^athey will say, ‘It’s hopeless! For we are going to follow our own plans, and each of us will act according to the ^bstubbornness of his evil heart.’
