Jeremaya 1: 17-19

1:17 Ya mere, you should gird your waist, and rise up, and speak to them everything that I instruct you. You should not have dread before their face. For I will cause you to be unafraid of their countenance.

1:18 N'ezie, this day, I have made you like a fortified city, and an iron pillar, and a brass wall, over all the land, to the kings of Judah, to its leaders, nye kwa ndi-nchu-àjà, and to the people of the land.

1:19 And they will make war against you, but they will not prevail. For I am with you, ka Jehova siri, so that I may free you.”
