Jeremiah 20:12

Trust in him at all times; ye people, pour out your heart before him: God is a refuge for us. Selah.

But, O LORD of hosts, that judgest righteously, that triest the reins and the heart, let me see thy vengeance on them: for unto thee have I revealed my cause.

For he hath delivered me out of all trouble: and mine eye hath seen his desire upon mine enemies.

I the LORD search the heart, I try the reins, even to give every man according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings.

The God of my mercy shall prevent me: God shall let me see my desire upon mine enemies.

Oh let the wickedness of the wicked come to an end; but establish the just: for the righteous God trieth the hearts and reins.

Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts:

And Hezekiah received the letter from the hand of the messengers, and read it: and Hezekiah went up unto the house of the LORD, and spread it before the LORD.

Thou hast proved mine heart; thou hast visited me in the night; thou hast tried me, and shalt find nothing; I am purposed that my mouth shall not transgress.

Let them be confounded that persecute me, but let not me be confounded: let them be dismayed, but let not me be dismayed: bring upon them the day of evil, and destroy them with double destruction.

The LORD trieth the righteous: but the wicked and him that loveth violence his soul hateth.

And Hannah answered and said, No, my lord, I am a woman of a sorrowful spirit: I have drunk neither wine nor strong drink, but have poured out my soul before the LORD.

Like a crane or a swallow, so did I chatter: I did mourn as a dove: mine eyes fail with looking upward: O LORD, I am oppressed; undertake for me.

And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth?

Rejoice over her, thou heaven, and ye holy apostles and prophets; for God hath avenged you on her.

Mine heritage is unto me as a lion in the forest; it crieth out against me: therefore have I hated it.

Rejoice the soul of thy servant: for unto thee, O Lord, do I lift up my soul.

And I will kill her children with death; and all the churches shall know that I am he which searcheth the reins and hearts: and I will give unto every one of you according to your works.

Who, when he was reviled, reviled not again; when he suffered, he threatened not; but committed himself to him that judgeth righteously:

Thus Joash the king remembered not the kindness which Jehoiada his father had done to him, but slew his son. And when he died, he said, The LORD look upon it, and require it.
