4 Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying, 5 Before I formed you in the belly I knew you; and before you came out of the womb I sanctified you and ordained you a prophet to the nations. 6 Then I said, I beseech thee, O LORD God! Behold, I cannot speak, for I am but a child. 7 And the LORD said to me, Do not say, I am a child; for you shall go to all that I shall send you, and whatever I command you you shall speak. 8 Be not afraid of their presence; for I am with you to deliver you, says the LORD. 9 Then the LORD put forth his hand and touched my mouth. And the LORD said to me, Behold, I have put my words in your mouth. Jeremiah 1:4-9, Lamsa Bible. Public domain.
