Jeremiah 1:8 Douay-Rheims

Be not afraid at their presence: for I am with thee to deliver thee, saith the Lord.

John Gill

1697–1771 Reformed

Be not afraid of their faces,.... Their stern looks, their frowning brows, and angry countenances, which would threaten him with destruction and death: for I am with thee, to deliver thee, saith the Lord; out of their hands, when in the most imminent danger. The Targum paraphrases the words thus, "my Word shall be thine help to deliver thee:'' which is true of Christ, the essential Word of God.
