Jeremiah 1:4-10

4Then the wordH1697 of YhwhH3068 came unto me, sayingH559, 5BeforeH2962 I formedH3335 thee in the bellyH990 I knewH3045 thee; and before thou camest forthH3318 out of the wombH7358 I sanctifiedH6942 thee, and I ordainedH5414 thee a prophetH5030 unto the nationsH1471.1 6Then saidH559 I, AhH162, LordH136 YhwhH3069! behold, I cannotH3045 speakH1696: for I am a childH5288.

7But YhwhH3068 saidH559 unto me, SayH559 not, I am a childH5288: for thou shalt goH3212 to all that I shall sendH7971 thee, and whatsoever I commandH6680 thee thou shalt speakH1696. 8Be not afraidH3372 of their facesH6440: for I am with thee to deliverH5337 thee, saithH5002 YhwhH3068. 9Then YhwhH3068 put forthH7971 his handH3027, and touchedH5060 my mouthH6310. And YhwhH3068 saidH559 unto me, Behold, I have putH5414 my wordsH1697 in thy mouthH6310. 10SeeH7200, I have this dayH3117 setH6485 thee over the nationsH1471 and over the kingdomsH4467, to root outH5428, and to pull downH5422, and to destroyH6, and to throw downH2040, to buildH1129, and to plantH5193.
