Jeremiah 15:19-21

Contemporary English Version

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.
