Jeremiah 15:19-21
1599 Geneva Bible
19 Therefore thus saith the Lord, If thou [a]return, then will I bring thee again, and thou shalt stand before me: and if thou take away the [b]precious from the vile, thou shalt be [c]according to my word: let them return [d]unto thee, but return not thou unto them.
20 And I will make thee unto this people a strong brazen wall, and they shall fight against thee, but they shall not [e]prevail against thee: for I am with thee to save thee, and to deliver thee, saith the Lord.
21 And I will deliver thee out of the hand of the wicked, and I will redeem thee out of the hand of the tyrants.

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)
