Jeremiah 15:17-19

Contemporary English Version

¹⁷ I don't go to parties
    and have a good time.
Instead, I keep to myself,
because you have filled me
    with your anger.

¹⁹ Then the Lord told me:
    Stop talking like a fool!
If you turn back to me
    and speak my message,
I will let you be my prophet
    once again.
I hope the people of Judah
    will accept what you say.
But you can ignore their threats,
