Made Simple — Modern English Translation

Translated by Verse Made Simple Editorial

The LORD hath done that which he had devised; he hath fulfilled his word that he had commanded in the days of old: he hath thrown down, and hath not pitied: and he hath caused thine enemy to rejoice over thee, he hath set up the horn of thine adversaries.

✦ MADE SIMPLE

God did exactly what he said he would do. He kept his word from way back — the warnings he'd been giving for generations. He tore everything down without holding back, let your enemies celebrate your downfall, and made them stronger than ever.

⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE

When God says something will happen, it happens — even the hard stuff we don't want to face.
