⁴ This is what GOD said: ⁵ "Before I shaped you in the womb, I knew all about you. Before you saw the light of day, I had holy plans for you: A prophet to the nations-- that's what I had in mind for you." ⁶ But I said, "Hold it, Master GOD! Look at me. I don't know anything. I'm only a boy!" ⁷ GOD told me, "Don't say, 'I'm only a boy.' I'll tell you where to go and you'll go there. I'll tell you what to say and you'll say it. ⁸ Don't be afraid of a soul. I'll be right there, looking after you." GOD's Decree.
