Jeremiah 1:7 in Context — Jeremiah 1
5 Avant que je t’eusse formé dans le ventre de ta mère, je te connaissais, et avant que tu fusses sorti de son sein, je t’avais consacré, je t’avais établi prophète des nations.
6 Je répondis: Ah! Seigneur Éternel! Voici, je ne sais point parler, car je suis un enfant.
7 Et l’Éternel me dit: Ne dis pas: Je suis un enfant. Car tu iras vers tous ceux auprès de qui je t’enverrai, et tu diras tout ce que je t’ordonnerai.
8 Ne les crains point, car je suis avec toi pour te délivrer, dit l’Éternel.
9 Puis l’Éternel étendit sa main, et toucha ma bouche; et l’Éternel me dit: Voici, je mets mes paroles dans ta bouche.
