17 But you, gird up your loins; stand up and tell them everything that I command you. Do not break down before them, or I will break you before them.(A) 18 And I for my part have made you today a fortified city, an iron pillar, and a bronze wall against the whole land, against the kings of Judah, its officials, its priests, and the people of the land.(B) 19 They will fight against you, but they shall not prevail against you, for I am with you, says the Lord, to deliver you.”(C)

Jeremiah 1:17-19
New Living Translation
17 “Get up and prepare for action.
Go out and tell them everything I tell you to say.
Do not be afraid of them,
or I will make you look foolish in front of them.
18 For see, today I have made you strong
like a fortified city that cannot be captured,
like an iron pillar or a bronze wall.
You will stand against the whole land—
the kings, officials, priests, and people of Judah.
19 They will fight you, but they will fail.
For I am with you, and I will take care of you.
I, the Lord, have spoken!”
