1 This is another communicacion, that God had with Ieremy, sayenge:
2 Arise, and go downe in to the Potters house, and there shall I tell the more off my mynde.
3 Now when I came to the Potters house, I founde him makinge his worke vpon a whele.
4 The vessel that the Potter made off claye, brake amonge his hodes: So he beganne a new, and made a nother vessell, acordinge to his mynde.
5 Then sayde the LORDE thus vnto me:
6 Maye not I do wt you, as this Potter doth, O ye house off Israel? saieth the LORDE? Beholde, ye house off Israel: ye are in my honde, euen as the claye in the Potters honde.
7 When I take in honde to rote out, to destroye, or to waist awaye eny people or kigdome:
8 yff that people (agaynst whom I haue thus deuysed) couerte from their wickednes: Immediatly, I repente off the plage, that I deuysed to bringe vpon the.
9 Agayne: Whe I take in honde, to buylde, or to plante a people or a kingdome:
10 yff the same people do euell before me, and heare not my voyce: Immediatly, I repente of the good, that I deuysed to do for them.
