Genesis 1:27

27. So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them.

Jeremiah 1:4-13

4. The word of the LORD came to me, saying,
5. "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you as a prophet to the nations."
6. "Ah, Sovereign LORD," I said, "I do not know how to speak; I am only a child."
7. But the LORD said to me, "Do not say, `I am only a child.' You must go to everyone I send you to and say whatever I command you.
8. Do not be afraid of them, for I am with you and will rescue you," declares the LORD.
9. Then the LORD reached out his hand and touched my mouth and said to me, "Now, I have put my words in your mouth.
10. See, today I appoint you over nations and kingdoms to uproot and tear down, to destroy and overthrow, to build and to plant."
11. The word of the LORD came to me: "What do you see, Jeremiah?" "I see the branch of an almond tree," I replied.
12. The LORD said to me, "You have seen correctly, for I am watching to see that my word is fulfilled."
13. The word of the LORD came to me again: "What do you see?" "I see a boiling pot, tilting away from the north," I answered.
