Jeremiah 1:11-12

Expanded Bible

Jeremiah Sees Two Visions

¹¹ The Lord spoke his word to me, saying: “Jeremiah, what do you see?”

I answered, “I see a ·stick [branch] of almond ·wood [tree].”

¹² The Lord said to me, “You have seen correctly, because I am watching to make sure my words come true [^C“to watch” (shaqad) sounds like “almond tree” (shoqed)].”
