⁴ Now the word of the LORD came to me saying, ⁵ “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, And before you were born I consecrated you; I have appointed you a prophet to the nations.” ⁶ Then I said, “Alas, Lord^a Heb YHWH, usually rendered LordGOD! Behold, I do not know how to speak, Because I am a youth.” ⁷ But the LORD said to me, “Do not say, ‘I am a youth,’ Because everywhere I send you, you shall go, And all that I command you, you shall speak. ⁸ “Do not be afraid of them, For I am with you to deliver you,” declares the LORD.	5 Psa 139:15 Psa 139:16 Isa 49:1 Isa 49:5 Luk 1:15 Jer 1:10 Jer 25:15-26 6 Exo 4:10 Ki1 3:7 7 Eze 2:3 Eze 2:4 Num 22:20 Jer 1:17 8 Exo 3:12 Deu 31:6 Jos 1:5 Jer 15:20 Eze 2:6
⁹ Then the LORD stretched out His hand and touched my mouth, and the LORD said to me, “Behold, I have put My words in your mouth. ¹⁰ “See, I have appointed you this day over the nations and over the kingdoms, To pluck up and to break down, To destroy and to overthrow, To build and to plant.”	9 Isa 6:7 Mar 7:33-35 Exo 4:11-16 Deu 18:18 Isa 51:16 10 Rev 11:3-6 Jer 18:7-10 Eze 32:18 Co2 10:4 Isa 44:26-28 Jer 24:6 Jer 31:28 Jer 31:40

¹³ The word of the LORD came to me a second time saying, “What do you see?” And I said, “I see a boiling pot, facing away from the north.” ¹⁴ Then the LORD said to me, “Out of the north the evil^d Lit will be openedwill break forth on all the inhabitants of the land. ¹⁵ For, behold, I am calling all the families of the kingdoms of the north,” declares the LORD; “and they will come and they will set each one his throne at the entrance of the gates of Jerusalem, and against all its walls round about and against all the cities of Judah. ¹⁶ I will^e Lit speakpronounce My judgments on them concerning all their wickedness, whereby they have forsaken Me and have^f Or burned incenseoffered sacrifices to other gods, and worshiped the works of their own hands. ¹⁷ Now, gird up your loins and arise, and speak to them all which I command you. Do not be dismayed before them, or I will dismay you before them. ¹⁸ Now behold, I have made you today as a fortified city and as a pillar of iron and as walls of bronze against the whole land, to the kings of Judah, to its princes, to its priests and to the people of the land. ¹⁹ They will fight against you, but they will not overcome you, for I am with you to deliver you,” declares the LORD.	13 Zec 4:2 Eze 11:3 Eze 11:7 14 Isa 41:25 Jer 4:6 Jer 10:22 15 Jer 25:9 Isa 22:7 Jer 39:3 Jer 4:16 Jer 9:11 16 Deu 28:20 Jer 7:9 Jer 19:4 Jer 44:17 Isa 2:8 Isa 37:19 Jer 10:3-5 17 Ki1 18:46 Job 38:3 Eze 2:6 Eze 3:16-18 19 Num 14:9 Jer 1:8 Jer 20:11
