Jeremiah 18:10-12

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

¹⁰ but if it does evil in my sight, not listening to my voice, then I will change my mind about the good that I had intended to do to it. ¹¹ Now, therefore, say to the people of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem: Thus says the Lord: Look, I am a potter shaping evil against you and devising a plan against you. Turn now, all of you from your evil way, and amend your ways and your doings.

Israel’s Stubborn Idolatry

¹² But they say, ‘It is no use! We will follow our own plans, and each of us will act according to the stubbornness of our evil will.’
