Jeremiah 17:14–16

Heal me, O LORD, and I will be healed. Save me, and I will be saved; for you are my praise. Behold, they ask me, “Where is the LORD’s word? Let it be fulfilled now.” As for me, I have not hurried from being a shepherd after you. I haven’t desired the woeful day. You know. That which came out of my lips was before your face.
