Jeremiah 1:4-9
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.
