Jeremiah 18: 1-6
The Potter and the Clay
18The word that came to Jeremiah from the
Lord: 2‘Come, go down to the potter’s house, and there I will let
you hear my words.’ 3So I went down to the potter’s house, and there
he was working at his wheel. 4The vessel he was making of clay was
spoiled in the potter’s hand, and he reworked it into another
vessel, as seemed good to him.
5 Then the word of the Lord came to me: 6Can I not do with you, O
house of Israel, just as this potter has done? says the Lord. Just
like the clay in the potter’s hand, so are you in my hand, O house
of Israel.
