Jeremiah 1:6-10
English Standard Version
6 Then I said, “Ah, Lord God! Behold, (A)I do not know how to speak, (B)for I am only a youth.” 7 But the Lord said to me,
“Do not say, ‘I am only a youth’;
for to all to whom I send you, you shall go,
and (C)whatever I command you, you shall speak.
8 (D)Do not be afraid of them,
(E)for I am with you to deliver you,
declares the Lord.”
9 (F)Then the Lord put out his hand and (G)touched my mouth. And the Lord said to me,
“Behold, I have put (H)my words in your mouth.
10 See, I have set you this day (I)over nations and over kingdoms,
(J)to pluck up and to break down,
to destroy and to overthrow,
to build and to plant.”
Jeremiah 1:6-10
International Standard Version
6 I replied, “Ah, Lord God! Look, I don’t know how to speak, because I’m only[a] a young man.”
7 Then the Lord told me, “Don’t say, ‘I’m only[b] a young man,’ for you will go everywhere I send you, and you will speak everything I command you. 8 Don’t be afraid of them, because I am with you to deliver you,” declares the Lord.
9 The Lord stretched out his hand, touched my mouth, and then told me, “Look, I’ve put my words in your mouth. 10 See, today I’ve appointed you to prophesy about nations and kingdoms, to pull up and tear down, to destroy and overthrow, to build and to plant.”
