Jeremiah 17:15-17
International Children’s Bible
15 The people of Judah keep asking me,
“Where is the word from the Lord?
Let’s see that message come true!”
16 Lord, I didn’t run away from being the shepherd you wanted.
I didn’t want the terrible day to come.
You know everything I have said.
You see all that is happening.
17 Lord, don’t bring terror to me.
I run to you for safety in times of trouble.

17 Do not be a terror(C) to me;
you are my refuge(D) in the day of disaster.(E)
