Jeremiah 18:2-6

EJ2000(i) 2 Arise and go down to the potter’s house, and there I will cause thee to hear my words. 3 Then I went down to the potter’s house; and, behold, he wrought a work upon a wheel. 4 And the vessel that he made of clay was broken in the hand of the potter: so he made it again another vessel, as seemed good to the potter to make it. 5 Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying, 6 O house of Israel, can I not do with you as this potter? saith the LORD. Behold, as the clay is in the potter’s hand, so are ye in my hand, O house of Israel.
