NASB
""At one moment I might speak concerning a nation or concerning a kingdom to uproot, to pull down, or to destroy it;"
— Jeremiah 18:7, NASB
“At what instant I shall speak concerning a nation, and concerning a kingdom, to pluck up, and to pull down, and to destroy it;”
“At what instant I shall speak concerning a nation, and concerning a kingdom, to pluck up and to break down and to destroy it; ”
“At what instant I shall speak concerning a nation, and concerning a kingdom, to pluck up and to break down and to destroy it;”
“There are times, Jeremiah, when I threaten to uproot, tear down, and destroy a nation or kingdom.”
“I will suddenly speak against a nation, and against a kingdom, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy it.”
“Whenever I say anything about uprooting a nation or a kingdom, and smashing it and sending destruction on it;”
“At what instant I shall speak concerning a nation, and concerning a kingdom, to pluck up, and to pull down, and to destroy it;”
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.
"Or at another moment I might speak concerning a nation or concerning a kingdom to build up or to plant it;
if it does evil in My sight by not obeying My voice, then I will think better of the good with which I had promised to bless it.
