Jeremiah 18:7-12
7At one momentH7281 I might speakH1696 concerningH5921 a nationH1471 or concerningH5921 a kingdomH4467 to 1uprootH5428 it, to tearH5422 it downH5422, or to destroyH6 it; 82if that nationH1471 againstH5921 whichH834 I have spokenH1696 turnsH7725 from its evilH7463, I will 3relentH5162 of the disasterH7463 that I plannedH2803 to bringH6213 on it. 9Or at another momentH7281 I might speakH1696 concerningH5921 a nationH1471 or concerningH5921 a kingdomH4467 to 4buildH1129 upH1129 or to plantH5193 it; 10if it doesH6213 5evilH7451 in My sightH5869 by not obeyingH8085 My voiceH6963, then I will 6relentH5162 of the goodH2899 with whichH834 I saidH559 7that I would blessH3190 it. 11So nowH6258, speakH559 to the menH376 of JudahH3063 and againstH5921 the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389, sayingH559, ‘ThisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH3068 saysH559: “BeholdH2009, I am 8formingH3335 a disasterH7463 againstH5921 you and devisingH2803 a planH4284 againstH5921 you. NowH4994 9turnH7725 backH7725, eachH376 of you from his evilH7451 wayH1870, and 10correctH3190 your waysH1870 and your deedsH4611!”’ 12But 11they will sayH559, ‘It’s hopelessH2976! For we are goingH1980 to followH310H1980 our own plansH4284, and eachH376 of us will 12persistH6213 in the 13stubbornnessH8307 of his evilH7451 heartH3820.’
