Jeremiah 17:15-17

Common English Bible

¹⁵ See how they harass me:
    “Where’s the Lord’s word?
        Let it come now!”
¹⁶ Yet I didn’t urge you to bring disaster;^[a]
    I didn’t want the calamity to happen.
You know what comes out of my mouth;
    it’s always before you.
¹⁷ Don’t terrorize me;
    you are my refuge in time of disaster.
