Jeremiah 1:17-19

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁷ Thou therefore gird up thy loins, and arise, and speak to them all that I command thee. Be not afraid at their presence: for I will make thee not to fear their countenance.

¹⁸ For behold I have made thee this day a fortified city, and a pillar of iron, and a wall of brass, over all the land, to the kings of Juda, to the princes thereof, and to the priests, and to the people of the land.

¹⁹ And they shall fight against thee, and shall not prevail: for I am with thee, saith the Lord, to deliver thee.
