You shall be as My mouth.
Let them return to you,

19 Therefore, this is what the Lord says:
“(A)If you return, then I will restore you—
(B)You will stand before Me;

They, for their part, may turn to you,
But as for you, you are not to turn to them.

19
Therefore, thus says the Lord [to Jeremiah],
“If you repent [and give up this mistaken attitude of despair and self-pity], then I will restore you [to a state of inner peace]
So that you may stand before Me [as My obedient representative];
And if you separate the precious from the worthless [examining yourself and cleansing your heart from unwarranted doubt concerning My faithfulness],
You will become My spokesman.
Let the people turn to you [and learn to value My values]—
But you, you must not turn to them [with regard for their idolatry and wickedness].
