O Panie, skarz mię, jedno tylko z miarą, a nie w gniewie twoim, abyś mię snadź w niwecz nie obrócił.
Karz mię, Panie! ale łaskawie, nie w gniewie swym, byś mię snać wniwecz nie obrócił.
Karć mnie, PANIE, lecz według słusznej miary, nie czyń tego w gniewie, abyś mnie nie zniweczył!
Karz mię, Panie! ale łaskawie, nie w gniewie swym, byś mię snać wniwecz nie obrócił.
Karć mnie, PANIE, ale według słusznej miary, nie w swym gniewie, abyś mnie nie zniszczył.
Karć mnie, Panie, ale według sprawiedliwej miary, nie w swoim gniewie, abyś mnie nie zniweczył!

Gill's Notes on the Bible
O Lord, correct me, but with judgment,.... The prophet here represents the body of the Jewish nation, especially the godly among them; he considers the troubles coming upon the nation as a correction and chastisement of the Lord; he does not refuse it, or desire it might not come upon them; he knew the chastisements of a father are for good; he only entreats it might be "with judgment"; not in strict justice, as his and the sins of his people deserved, then they would not be able to bear it; but in measure and moderation, with a mixture of mercy and tenderness in it; and in a distinguishing manner, so as to make a difference between his own people and others, in the correction of them; see Ezekiel 34:16:
not in thine anger; in vindictive wrath, and hot displeasure, which is elsewhere deprecated by the saints, Psalms 6:1:
lest thou bring me to nothing; or "lessen me" e, or "make me little"; or make us few, as the Arabic version; or bring to a small number, as the Syriac; and so to utter ruin.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The lamentation of the daughter of Zion, the Jewish Church, at the devastation of the land, and her humble prayer to God for mercy.
Jeremiah 10:19
Grievous - Rather, âmortal,â i. e., fatal, incurable.
A grief - Or, âmy grief.â
Jeremiah 10:20
tabernacle - i. e., âtent.â Jerusalem laments that her tent is plundered and her children carried into exile, and so âare not,â are dead Matthew 2:18, either absolutely, or dead to her in the remote land of their captivity. They can aid the widowed mother no longer in pitching her tent, or in hanging up the curtains round about it.
Jeremiah 10:21
Therefore they shall not prosper - Rather, âtherefore they have not governed wisely.â âThe pastors,â i. e., the kings and rulers Jeremiah 2:8, having sunk to the condition of barbarous and untutored men, could not govern wisely.
Jeremiah 10:22
The âgreat commotionâ is the confused noise of the army on its march (see Jeremiah 8:16).
Dragons - i. e., jackals; see the marginal reference.
Jeremiah 10:23
At the rumour of the enemyâs approach Jeremiah utters in the name of the nation a supplication appropriate to men overtaken by the divine justice.
Jeremiah 10:24
With judgment - In Jeremiah 30:11; Jeremiah 46:28, the word âjudgmentâ (with a different preposition) is rendered âin measure.â The contrast therefore is between punishment inflicted in anger, and that inflicted as a duty of justice, of which the object is the criminalâs reformation. Jeremiah prays that God would punish Jacob so far only as would bring him to true repentance, but that he would pour forth his anger upon the pagan, as upon that which opposes itself to God Jeremiah 10:25.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Jeremiah 10:24. Correct me, but with judgment — Let not the punishment be to the uttermost of the demerit of the offence; else we shall be brought to nothing-totally and irrecoverably ruined.
