The word [1697] which came to Jeremiah [3414] from the LORD, [3068] saying, [0559]

2

Arise, [6965] and go down [3381] to the potter's [3335] house, [1004] and there I will cause thee to hear [8085] my words. [1697]

3

Then I went down [3381] to the potter's [3335] house, [1004] and, behold, [2009] he wrought [6213] a work [4399] on the wheels. [0070]

4

And the vessel [3627] that he made [6213] of clay [2563] was marred [7843] in the hand [3027] of the potter: [3335] so he made [6213] it again [7725] another [0312] vessel, [3627] as seemed [5869] good [3474] to the potter [3335] to make [6213] [it].

5

Then the word [1697] of the LORD [3068] came to me, saying, [0559]

6

O house [1004] of Israel, [3478] cannot [3808] [3201] I do [6213] with you as this potter? [3335] saith [5002] the LORD. [3068] Behold, as the clay [2563] [is] in the potter's [3335] hand, [3027] so [are] ye in mine hand, [3027] O house [1004] of Israel. [3478]

7

[At what] instant [7281] I shall speak [1696] concerning a nation, [1471] and concerning a kingdom, [4467] to pluck up, [5428] and to pull down, [5422] and to destroy [0006] [it];

8

If that nation, [1471] against whom I have pronounced, [1696] turn [7725] from their evil, [7451] I will repent [5162] of the evil [7451] that I thought [2803] to do [6213] unto them.

9

And [at what] instant [7281] I shall speak [1696] concerning a nation, [1471] and concerning a kingdom, [4467] to build [1129] and to plant [5193] [it];

10

If it do [6213] evil [7451] in my sight, [5869] that it obey [8085] not my voice, [6963] then I will repent [5162] of the good, [2896] wherewith I said [0559] I would benefit [3190] them.

11

Now therefore go to, speak [0559] to the men [0376] of Judah, [3063] and to the inhabitants [3427] of Jerusalem, [3389] saying, [0559] Thus saith [0559] the LORD; [3068] Behold, I frame [3335] evil [7451] against you, and devise [2803] a device [4284] against you: return [7725] ye now every one [0376] from his evil [7451] way, [1870] and make your ways [1870] and your doings [4611] good. [3190]

12

And they said, [0559] There is no hope: [2976] but we will walk [3212] after [0310] our own devices, [4284] and we will every one [0376] do [6213] the imagination [8307] of his evil [7451] heart. [3820]

13

Therefore thus saith [0559] the LORD; [3068] Ask [7592] ye now among the heathen, [1471] who hath heard [8085] such things: the virgin [1330] of Israel [3478] hath done [6213] a very [3966] horrible thing. [8186]

14

Will [a man] leave [5800] the snow [7950] of Lebanon [3844] [which cometh] from the rock [6697] of the field? [7704] [or] shall the cold [7119] flowing [5140] waters [4325] that come from another place [2114] be forsaken? [5428]

15

Because my people [5971] hath forgotten [7911] me, they have burned incense [6999] to vanity, [7723] and they have caused them to stumble [3782] in their ways [1870] [from] the ancient [5769] paths, [7635] [7635] to walk [3212] in paths, [5410] [in] a way [1870] not cast up; [5549]

16

To make [7760] their land [0776] desolate, [8047] [and] a perpetual [5769] hissing; [8292] [8292] every one that passeth [5674] thereby shall be astonished, [8074] and wag [5110] his head. [7218]

17

I will scatter [6327] them as with an east [6921] wind [7307] before [6440] the enemy; [0341] I will shew [7200] them the back, [6203] and not the face, [6440] in the day [3117] of their calamity. [0343]

18

Then said [0559] they, Come, [3212] and let us devise [2803] devices [4284] against Jeremiah; [3414] for the law [8451] shall not perish [0006] from the priest, [3548] nor counsel [6098] from the wise, [2450] nor the word [1697] from the prophet. [5030] Come, [3212] and let us smite [5221] him with the tongue, [3956] and let us not give heed [7181] to any of his words. [1697]

19

Give heed [7181] to me, O LORD, [3068] and hearken [8085] to the voice [6963] of them that contend [3401] with me.

20

Shall evil [7451] be recompensed [7999] for good? [2896] for they have digged [3738] a pit [7745] for my soul. [5315] Remember [2142] that I stood [5975] before [6440] thee to speak [1696] good [2896] for them, [and] to turn away [7725] thy wrath [2534] from them.

21

Therefore deliver up [5414] their children [1121] to the famine, [7458] and pour out [5064] their [blood] by the force [3027] of the sword; [2719] and let their wives [0802] be bereaved [7909] of their children, and [be] widows; [0490] and let their men [0582] be put [2026] to death; [4194] [let] their young men [0970] [be] slain [5221] by the sword [2719] in battle. [4421]

22

Let a cry [2201] be heard [8085] from their houses, [1004] when thou shalt bring [0935] a troop [1416] suddenly [6597] upon them: for they have digged [3738] a pit [7745] [7882] to take [3920] me, and hid [2934] snares [6341] for my feet. [7272]

23

Yet, LORD, [3068] thou knowest [3045] all their counsel [6098] against me to slay [4194] [me]: forgive [3722] not their iniquity, [5771] neither blot out [4229] their sin [2403] from thy sight, [6440] but let them be overthrown [3782] before [6440] thee; deal [6213] [thus] with them in the time [6256] of thine anger.
