Jeremiah 1:4-8
New American Standard Bible 1995
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 a prophet to the nations.”
6 Then (D)I said, “Alas, Lord [a]God!
Behold, I do not know how to speak,
Because (E)I am a youth.”
7 But the Lord said to me,
“Do not say, ‘I am a youth,’
(F)Because everywhere I send you, you shall go,
And (G)all that I command you, you shall speak.
8 “(H)Do not be afraid of them,
For (I)I am with you to deliver you,” declares the Lord.
