The King James Version Bible

Jeremiah 18:1-6

  1. The word which came to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying,

  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 on the wheels.

  4. And the vessel that he made of clay was marred 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, cannot I do with you as this potter? saith the LORD. Behold, as the clay is in the potter's hand, so are ye in mine hand, O house of Israel.
