Jeremiah 15:19-21
Contemporary English Version
The Lord Replies
19 Then the Lord told me:
Stop talking like a fool!
If you turn back to me
and speak my message,
I will let you be my prophet
once again.
I hope the people of Judah
will accept what you say.
But you can ignore their threats,
* 20 because I am making you strong,
like a bronze wall.
They are evil and violent,
but when they attack,
21 I will be there to rescue you.
I, the Lord, have spoken.

Jeremiah 15:19-21
New International Version
19 Therefore this is what the Lord says:
“If you repent, I will restore you
that you may serve(A) me;
if you utter worthy, not worthless, words,
you will be my spokesman.(B)
Let this people turn to you,
but you must not turn to them.
20 I will make you a wall(C) to this people,
a fortified wall of bronze;
they will fight against you
but will not overcome(D) you,
for I am with you
to rescue and save you,”(E)
declares the Lord.
21 “I will save(F) you from the hands of the wicked(G)
and deliver(H) you from the grasp of the cruel.”(I)
