Jeremiah 1:11-13
21st Century King James Version
11 Moreover the word of the Lord came unto me, saying, “Jeremiah, what seest thou?” And I said, “I see a rod of an almond tree.”
12 Then said the Lord unto me, “Thou hast well seen, for I will hasten My word to perform it.”
13 And the word of the Lord came unto me the second time, saying, “What seest thou?” And I said, “I see a seething pot, and the face thereof is toward the north.”

“I see a pot that is boiling,” I answered. “It is tilting toward us from the north.”
