The Exile

From Jeremiah here 1:4-10:

The word of the LORD came to me thus:
5
3 Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I dedicated you, a prophet to the nations I appointed you.
6
4 "Ah, Lord GOD!" I said, "I know not how to speak; I am too young."
7
But the LORD answered me, Say not, "I am too young." To whomever I send you, you shall go; whatever I command you, you shall speak.
8
Have no fear before them, because I am with you to deliver you, says the LORD.
9
Then the LORD extended his hand and touched my mouth, saying, See, I place my words in your mouth!
10
This day I set you over nations and over kingdoms, To root up and to tear down, to destroy and to demolish, to build and to plant.
