The verse 3 is found in chapter 12 of Jeremiah. Jeremiah raises the classic problem of the prosperity of the wicked: why do those who act deceitfully prosper? God responds not by offering a simple explanation, but by showing that the situation will require greater endurance from the prophet. Even his own relatives become a test, anticipating the loneliness of his ministry.
