Jeremiah 15:19-21
New Living Translation
19 This is how the Lord responds:
“If you return to me, I will restore you
so you can continue to serve me.
If you speak good words rather than worthless ones,
you will be my spokesman.
You must influence them;
do not let them influence you!
20 They will fight against you like an attacking army,
but I will make you as secure as a fortified wall of bronze.
They will not conquer you,
for I am with you to protect and rescue you.
I, the Lord, have spoken!
21 Yes, I will certainly keep you safe from these wicked men.
I will rescue you from their cruel hands.”
Jeremiah 15:19-21
Christian Standard Bible
Jeremiah Told to Repent
19 Therefore, this is what the Lord says:
If you return, I will take you back;
you will stand in my presence.
And if you speak noble words,
rather than worthless ones,
you will be my spokesman.(A)
It is they who must return to you;
you must not return to them.
20 Then I will make you a fortified wall of bronze
to this people.
They will fight against you
but will not overcome you,
for I am with you
to save you and rescue you.(B)
This is the Lord’s declaration.
21 I will rescue you from the power of evil people
and redeem you from the grasp of the ruthless.
Jeremiah 15:19-21
New International Version
19 Therefore this is what the Lord says:
“If you repent, I will restore you
that you may serve(A) me;
if you utter worthy, not worthless, words,
you will be my spokesman.(B)
Let this people turn to you,
but you must not turn to them.
20 I will make you a wall(C) to this people,
a fortified wall of bronze;
they will fight against you
but will not overcome(D) you,
for I am with you
to rescue and save you,”(E)
declares the Lord.
21 “I will save(F) you from the hands of the wicked(G)
and deliver(H) you from the grasp of the cruel.”(I)
