Jeremiah 18:6-8

Young's Literal Translation

⁶ As this potter am I not able to do to you? O house of Israel, an affirmation of Jehovah. Lo, as clay in the hand of the potter, So [are] ye in My hand, O house of Israel.

⁷ The moment I speak concerning a nation, And concerning a kingdom, To pluck up and to break down, and to destroy,

⁸ And that nation hath turned from its evil, Because I have spoken against it, Then I have repented of the evil that I thought to do to it.
