Jeremiah 1:4-5
New American Standard Bible
4 Now the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
5 “Before I (A)formed you in the womb I knew you,
And (B)before you were born I consecrated you;
I have (C)appointed you as a prophet to the nations.”
Jeremiah 1:4-5
The Message
Demolish, and Then Start Over
1 1-4 The Message of Jeremiah son of Hilkiah of the family of priests who lived in Anathoth in the country of Benjamin. God’s Message began to come to him during the thirteenth year that Josiah son of Amon reigned over Judah. It continued to come to him during the time Jehoiakim son of Josiah reigned over Judah. And it continued to come to him clear down to the fifth month of the eleventh year of the reign of Zedekiah son of Josiah over Judah, the year that Jerusalem was taken into exile. This is what God said:
5 “Before I shaped you in the womb,
I knew all about you.
Before you saw the light of day,
I had holy plans for you:
A prophet to the nations—
that’s what I had in mind for you.”
Jeremías 1:4-5

4 Y vino a mí la palabra del Señor:
5 «Antes que Yo te formara en el seno materno, te conocí(A),
Y antes que nacieras, te consagré(B);
Te puse por profeta a las naciones(C)».
