Jeremiah 18:1-10

1This is the wordH1697 thatH834 cameH1961 toH413 JeremiahH3414H854 from the LORDH3068H559: 2“Go downH3381 at onceH6965 to the potter’sH3335 houseH1004, and thereH8033 I will give youH8085 My messageH1697.”

3So I went downH3381 to the potter’sH3335 houseH1004 and saw himH2009 workingH6213H4399 atH5921 the wheelH70. 4But the vesselH3627 thatH834 heH1931 was shapingH6213 from the clayH2563 became flawedH7843 inH3335H7725 his handH3027; so he formedH6213 it into anotherH312 vesselH3627, asH834 it seemedH5869 bestH3474 for himH3335 to doH6213.

5Then the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 cameH1961 to meH413, sayingH559, 6“O houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, declaresH5002 the LORDH3068, canH3201 I notH3808 treatH6213 you as thisH2088 potterH3335 treats his clay? JustH2009 like clayH2563 in the potter’sH3335 handH3027, soH3651 are youH859 in My handH3027, O houseH1004 of IsraelH3478.

7At any timeH7281 I might announceH1696 thatH5921 a nationH1471H5921 or kingdomH4467 will be uprootedH5428, torn downH5422, and destroyedH6. 8But if thatH1931 nationH1471 I warnedH1696 turnsH7725 from its evilH7451, then I will relentH5162 ofH5921 the disasterH7451 I had plannedH2803 to bringH6213.

9And if at another timeH7281 I announceH1696H5921 that I will build upH1129 and establishH5193 a nationH1471H5921 or kingdomH4467, 10and if it doesH6213 evilH7451 in My sightH5869 and does notH1115 listenH8085 to My voiceH6963, then I will relentH5162 ofH5921 the goodH2896 I had intended for itH559H3190.
