Jeremiah 17:15-17
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
15 See how they say to me,
“Where is the word of the Lord?
Let it come to pass!”(A)
16 Yet I did not press you to send disaster;
the day without remedy I have not desired.
You know what passed my lips;
it is present before you.
17 Do not become a terror to me,
you are my refuge in the day of disaster.(B)
