Jeremiah 17:15-17

World English Bible

¹⁵ Behold, they ask me,
    “Where is Yahweh’s word?
    Let it be fulfilled now.”
¹⁶ As for me, I have not hurried from being a shepherd after you.
    I haven’t desired the woeful day. You know.
    That which came out of my lips was before your face.
¹⁷ Don’t be a terror to me.
    You are my refuge in the day of evil.
