- 1The word that hath been unto Jeremiah from Jehovah, saying,
- 2Rise, and thou hast gone down `to' the potter's house, and there I cause thee to hear My words;
- 3and I go down `to' the potter's house, and lo, he is doing a work on the stones,
- 4and marred is the vessel that he is making, as clay in the hand of the potter, and he hath turned and he maketh it another vessel, as it was right in the eyes of the potter to make.

- 7The moment I speak concerning a nation, And concerning a kingdom, To pluck up and to break down, and to destroy,
- 8And that nation hath turned from its evil, Because I have spoken against it, Then I have repented of the evil that I thought to do to it.
- 9And the moment I speak concerning a nation, And concerning a kingdom, to build, and to plant,
- 10And it hath done the evil thing in Mine eyes, So as not to hearken to My voice, Then I have repented of the good That I have spoken of doing to it.
- 11And now, speak, I pray thee, unto men of Judah, And against inhabitants of Jerusalem, Saying: Thus said Jehovah: Lo, I am framing against you evil, And devising against you a device, Turn back, I pray you, each from his evil way And amen your ways and your doings.

- 12And they have said, It is incurable, For after our own devices we do go, And each the stubbornness of his evil heart we do.
- 13Therefore, thus said Jehovah: Ask, I pray you, among the nations, Who hath heard like these? A very horrible thing hath the virgin of Israel done.

- 17As an east wind I scatter them before an enemy, The neck, and not the face, I shew them, In the day of their calamity.'
- 18And they say, Come, And we devise against Jeremiah devices, For law doth not perish from the priest, Nor counsel from the wise, Nor the word from the prophet, Come, and we smite him with the tongue, And we do not attend to any of his words.
