Jeremiah 1:6-10

Amplified Bible

⁶ 
Then I said, “Ah, Lord God!
Behold, I do not know how to speak,
For I am [only] a young man.”^(A)
7 
But the Lord said to me,
“Do not say, ‘I am [only] a young man,’
Because everywhere I send you, you shall go,
And whatever I command you, you shall speak.
⁸ 
“Do not be afraid of them [or their hostile faces],
For I am with you [always] to protect you and deliver you,” says the Lord.

“Behold (hear Me), I have put My words in your mouth.
¹⁰ 
“See, I have appointed you this day over the nations and over the kingdoms,
To uproot and break down,
To destroy and to overthrow,
To build and to plant.”
