Jeremiah 1:6-10 And I said, O Lord, thou that art supreme Lord, behold, I know not how to speak, for I am a child.

Brenton⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁶ And I said, O Lord, thou that art supreme Lord, behold, I know not how to speak, for I am a child. ⁷ And the Lord said to me, Say not, I am a child: for thou shalt go to all to whomsoever I shall send thee, and according to all the words that I shall command thee, thou shalt speak. ⁸ Be not afraid before them: for I am with thee to deliver thee, saith the Lord. ⁹ And the Lord stretched forth his hand to me, and touched my mouth: and the Lord said to me, Behold, I have put my words into thy mouth. ¹⁰ Behold, I have appointed thee this day over nations and over kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to rebuild, and to plant.
