The Almond Rod and Boiling Pot
11 Now the word of Yahweh came to me saying, “What do you see, (A)Jeremiah?” And I said, “I see a rod of an [a]almond tree.” 12 Then Yahweh said to me, “You have seen well, for (B)I am [b]watching over My word to do it.”
13 The word of Yahweh came to me a second time saying, “(C)What do you see?” And I said, “I see a boiling (D)pot, facing away from the north.”
