⁴ A message came to me from the Lord. He said, ⁵ "Before I formed you in your mother's body I chose you. Before you were born I set you apart to serve me. I appointed you to be a prophet to the nations." ⁶ "You are my Lord and King," I said. "I don't know how to speak. I'm only a child." ⁷ But the Lord said to me, "Do not say, 'I'm only a child.' You must go to everyone I send you to. You must say everything I command you to say. ⁸ Do not be afraid of the people I send you to. I am with you. I will save you," announces the Lord.
