"Then the word of the LORD came to me saying,"
— Jeremiah 18:5, NASB
“Then the word of the Lord came to me, saying,”
“Then the word of Jehovah came to me, saying, ”
“Then the word of Yahweh came to me, saying,”
“Then the LORD’s message came to me,”
“Then the word of the Lord came to me, saying:”
“Then the word of the Lord came to me, saying,”
“Then the word of the Lord came to me, saying,”
"Arise and go down to the potter's house, and there I will announce My words to you."
Then I went down to the potter's house, and there he was, making something on the wheel.
But the vessel that he was making of clay was spoiled in the hand of the potter; so he remade it into another vessel, as it pleased the potter to make.
Then the word of the LORD came to me saying,
"Can I not, O house of Israel, deal with you as this potter does?" declares the LORD. "Behold, like the clay in the potter's hand, so are you in My hand, O house of Israel.
"At one moment I might speak concerning a nation or concerning a kingdom to uproot, to pull down, or to destroy it;
if that nation against which I have spoken turns from its evil, I will relent concerning the calamity I planned to bring on it.
