Jeremiah 1:9 in Context — Jeremiah 1

7 Porém o SENHOR me disse: Não digas: sou menino; porque a todos a quem eu te enviar tu irás, e falarás tudo quanto eu te mandar.

8 Não temas diante deles, porque estou contigo para te livrar, diz o SENHOR.

9 Então o SENHOR estendeu sua mão, e tocou em minha boca. E o SENHOR me disse: Eis que tenho posto minhas palavras em tua boca.

10 Olha que eu te pus neste dia sobre nações e sobre reinos, para arrancar e para derrubar, e para destruir e para arruinar, e para edificar e para plantar.

11 E a palavra do SENHOR veio a mim, dizendo: O que tu vês, Jeremias? E eu disse: Vejo uma vara de amendoeira.
