Jeremiah 17:15-17
Living Bible
15 Men scoff at me and say, “What is this word of the Lord you keep talking about? If these threats of yours are really from God, why don’t they come true?”
16 Lord, I don’t want the people crushed by terrible calamity. The plan is yours, not mine. It is your message I’ve given them, not my own. I don’t want them doomed! 17 Lord, don’t desert me now! You alone are my hope.

New International Version
15 They keep saying to me,
“Where is the word of the Lord?
Let it now be fulfilled!”(A)
16 I have not run away from being your shepherd;
you know I have not desired the day of despair.
What passes my lips(B) is open before you.
17 Do not be a terror(C) to me;
you are my refuge(D) in the day of disaster.(E)
