Jeremiah 18:6-8

New American Standard Bible

⁶ “Am I not able, house of Israel, to deal with you as this potter does?” declares the Lord. “Behold, like the ^(A)clay in the potter’s hand, so are you in My hand, house of Israel. ⁷ At one moment I might speak concerning a nation or concerning a kingdom to ^(B)uproot it, to tear it down, or to destroy it; ^8 (C)if that nation against which I have spoken turns from its evil, I will ^(D)relent of the disaster that I planned to bring on it.
