Jeremiah 15:19-21

Easy-to-Read Version

¹⁹ Then the Lord said, “Jeremiah, if you change and come back to me,
    I will not punish you.
If you change and come back to me,
    then you may serve me.
If you speak important things, not worthless words,
    then you may speak for me.
The people of Judah should change and come back to you.
    But don’t you change and be like them.
²⁰ I will make you strong.
    The people will think you are strong,
    like a wall made of bronze.
The people of Judah will fight against you,
    but they will not defeat you.
They will not defeat you,
    because I am with you.
I will help you, and I will save you.”
    This message is from the Lord.
²¹ “I will save you from these evil people.
    They frighten you, but I will save you from them.”
