Jeremiah 1:6-10
English Standard Version
6 Then I said, “Ah, Lord God! Behold, (A)I do not know how to speak, (B)for I am only a youth.” 7 But the Lord said to me,
“Do not say, ‘I am only a youth’;
for to all to whom I send you, you shall go,
and (C)whatever I command you, you shall speak.
8 (D)Do not be afraid of them,
(E)for I am with you to deliver you,
declares the Lord.”
9 (F)Then the Lord put out his hand and (G)touched my mouth. And the Lord said to me,
“Behold, I have put (H)my words in your mouth.
10 See, I have set you this day (I)over nations and over kingdoms,
(J)to pluck up and to break down,
to destroy and to overthrow,
to build and to plant.”
Jeremiah 1:6-10
New Living Translation
6 “O Sovereign Lord,” I said, “I can’t speak for you! I’m too young!”
7 The Lord replied, “Don’t say, ‘I’m too young,’ for you must go wherever I send you and say whatever I tell you. 8 And don’t be afraid of the people, for I will be with you and will protect you. I, the Lord, have spoken!” 9 Then the Lord reached out and touched my mouth and said,
“Look, I have put my words in your mouth!
10 Today I appoint you to stand up
against nations and kingdoms.
Some you must uproot and tear down,
destroy and overthrow.
Others you must build up
and plant.”
Jeremiah 1:6-10
