Version
Jeremiah 1:4-10

Now the word of the Lord came to me saying,

“Before I (A)formed you in the womb I knew you,
And (B)before you were born I consecrated you;
I have (C)appointed you a prophet to the nations.”
Then (D)I said, “Alas, Lord [a]God!
Behold, I do not know how to speak,
Because (E)I am a youth.”
But the Lord said to me,
“Do not say, ‘I am a youth,’
(F)Because everywhere I send you, you shall go,
And (G)all that I command you, you shall speak.
(H)Do not be afraid of them,
For (I)I am with you to deliver you,” declares the Lord.

Then the Lord stretched out His hand and (J)touched my mouth, and the Lord said to me,

“Behold, I have (K)put My words in your mouth.
10 “See, (L)I have appointed you this day over the nations and over the kingdoms,
(M)To pluck up and to break down,
To destroy and to overthrow,
(N)To build and to plant.”
