Jeremiah 20:13 - Additional Comments

Jeremiah has requested God take vengeance all those who persecute him (vs 12), and God must have been doing a work there, because Jeremiah sees his life has having been delivered. Maybe he simply sees the fact that he is still alive as a blessing (for Urijah did not have this same fate - Jer 26:20-23).
