See, I have this day set thee over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to plant.

The verse 10 is found in chapter 1 of Jeremiah. Jeremiah begins by identifying his ministry within the history of the kings of Judah and presenting his prophetic calling. God declares that he knew the prophet before forming him and had set him apart for a mission among the nations. Divine election precedes human ability, and Jeremiah’s objection concerning his youth contrasts with the authority God grants him.

Regarde, je t'établis aujourd'hui sur les nations et sur les royaumes, pour que tu arraches et que tu abattes, pour que tu ruines et que tu détruises, pour que tu bâtisses et que tu plantes.
Vedi, io ti ho oggi costituito sopra le genti, e sopra i regni; per divellere, per diroccare, per disperdere, e per distruggere; ed altresì per edificare, e per piantare
Olha, ponho-te neste dia sobre as nações, e sobre os reinos, para arrancares, e para derrubares, e para destruíres, e para arruinares; e também para edificares e para plantares.
我今日立你在列邦列國之上, 為要拔出,拆毀,毀壞,傾覆, 又要建立,栽植。」
