Jeremiah 17:15

Read in context

Jeremiah 17:13–17 · Berean Standard Bible

13 O LORD, the hope of Israel, all who abandon You will be put to shame. All who turn away will be written in the dust, for they have abandoned the LORD, the fountain of living water.

14 Heal me, O LORD, and I will be healed; save me, and I will be saved, for You are my praise.

15 Behold, they keep saying to me, “Where is the word of the LORD? Let it come now!”

16 But I have not run away from being Your shepherd; I have not desired the day of despair. You know that the utterance of my lips was spoken in Your presence.

17 Do not become a terror to me; You are my refuge in the day of disaster.
