“House of Isra’el, can’t I deal with you as the potter deals with his clay? — says ADONAI. Look! You, house of Isra’el, are the same in my hand as the clay in the potter’s hand.

At one time, I may speak about uprooting, breaking down and destroying a nation or kingdom; but if that nation turns from their evil, which prompted me to speak against it, then I relent concerning the disaster I had planned to inflict on it.

Similarly, at another time, I may speak about building and planting a nation or kingdom; but if it behaves wickedly from my perspective and doesn’t listen to what I say, then I change my mind and don’t do the good I said I would do that would have helped it.
