Jeremiah 1:8-10

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

⁸ Be not afraid of them,
for I am with you to deliver you,
                says the Lord.”

“Behold, I have put my words in your mouth.
¹⁰ See, I have set you this day over nations and over kingdoms,
to pluck up and to break down,
to destroy and to overthrow,
to build and to plant.”
