Jeremiah 18:7-11

If I speak of uprooting, breaking down, or destroying a nation or a kingdom, and that nation turns back from its wicked ways, then I will turn back from the disaster that I planned against it. And at another time, if I speak of planting or building a nation or a kingdom, but that nation does evil in my eyes and does not listen to my voice, then I will relent concerning the good that I planned to show it. “So now, go say to the people of Judah and Jerusalem, ‘YAHWEH says: Listen, I am a potter shaping punishment for you and working on a plan against you. Turn back, each person, from the evil way you live and the evil things you do!’
