Jeremiah 17:15-17

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

¹⁵ Behold, they say to me, Where is the word of the Lord [predicting the disaster that you said would befall us]? Let it come now!

¹⁶ But as for me, I have not sought to escape from being a shepherd after You, nor have I desired the woeful day [of judgment]; You know that. Whatever I said was spoken in Your presence and was from You.

¹⁷ Be not a terror to me; You are my refuge and my hope in the day of evil.
