Jeremiah 17:14-16

New International Reader's Version

¹⁴ Lord, heal me. Then I will be healed.
    Save me from my enemies. Then I will be saved.
    You are the one I praise.
¹⁵ They keep saying to me,
    “What has happened to the message the Lord gave you?
    Let it come true right now!”
¹⁶ I haven’t run away from being the shepherd of your people.
    You know I haven’t wanted the day of Jerusalem’s fall to come.
    You are aware of every word that comes from my lips.
