18 1The word that came to Jeremiah from Yahweh:Jeremiah at the potter's house. Jr.18.1-12הַדָּבָר אֲשֶׁר הָיָה אֶל־יִרְמְיָהוּ מֵאֵת יְהוָה לֵאמֹר׃
2"Arise, and go down to the potter's house, and there I will let you hear my words." קוּם וְיָרַדְתָּ בֵּית הַיֹּוצֵר וְשָׁמָּה אַשְׁמִיעֲךָ אֶת־דְּבָרָי׃
3So I went down to the potter's house, and there he was working at his wheel. וָאֵרֵד בֵּית הַיֹּוצֵר כ= וְהִנֵּהוּ ק= וְהִנֵּה־ ק= הוּא עֹשֶׂה מְלָאכָה עַל־הָאָבְנָיִם׃
4And the vessel he was making of clay was spoiled in the potter's hand, and he reworked it into another vessel, as it seemed good to the potter to do. וְנִשְׁחַת הַכְּלִי אֲשֶׁר הוּא עֹשֶׂה בַּחֹמֶר בְּיַד הַיֹּוצֵר וְשָׁב וַיַּעֲשֵׂהוּ כְּלִי אַחֵר כַּאֲשֶׁר יָשַׁר בְּעֵינֵי הַיֹּוצֵר לַעֲשֹׂות׃ ף
5Then the word of Yahweh came to me: וַיְהִי דְבַר־יְהוָה אֵלַי לֵאמֹור׃
6"O house of Israel, can I not do with you as this potter has done? says Yahweh. Behold, like the clay in the potter's hand, so are you in my hand, O house of Israel.  הֲכַיֹּוצֵר הַזֶּה לֹא־אוּכַל לַעֲשֹׂות לָכֶם בֵּית יִשְׂרָאֵל נְאֻם־יְהוָה הִנֵּה כַחֹמֶר בְּיַד הַיֹּוצֵר כֵּן־אַתֶּם בְּיָדִי בֵּית יִשְׂרָאֵל׃ ס
7If at any time I declare concerning a nation or a kingdom, that I will pluck up and break down and destroy it, רֶגַע אֲדַבֵּר עַל־גֹּוי וְעַל־מַמְלָכָה לִנְתֹושׁ וְלִנְתֹוץ וּלְהַאֲבִיד׃
8and if that nation, concerning which I have spoken, turns from its evil, I will repent of the evil that I intended to do to it. וְשָׁב הַגֹּוי הַהוּא מֵרָעָתֹו אֲשֶׁר דִּבַּרְתִּי עָלָיו וְנִחַמְתִּי עַל־הָרָעָה אֲשֶׁר חָשַׁבְתִּי לַעֲשֹׂות לֹו׃ ס
9And if at any time I declare concerning a nation or a kingdom that I will build and plant it, וְרֶגַע אֲדַבֵּר עַל־גֹּוי וְעַל־מַמְלָכָה לִבְנֹת וְלִנְטֹעַ׃
10and if it does evil in my sight, not listening to my voice, then I will repent of the good which I had intended to do to it. וְעָשָׂה כ= הָרָעָה ק= הָרַע בְּעֵינַי לְבִלְתִּי שְׁמֹעַ בְּקֹולִי וְנִחַמְתִּי עַל־הַטֹּובָה אֲשֶׁר אָמַרְתִּי לְהֵיטִיב אֹותֹו׃ ס
11Now, therefore, say to the men of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem: 'Thus says Yahweh, Behold, I am shaping evil against you and devising a plan against you. Return, every one from his evil way, and amend your ways and your doings.'  וְעַתָּה אֱמָר־נָא אֶל־אִישׁ־יְהוּדָה וְעַל־יֹושְׁבֵי יְרוּשָׁלִַם לֵאמֹר כֹּה אָמַר יְהוָה הִנֵּה אָנֹכִי יֹוצֵר עֲלֵיכֶם רָעָה וְחֹשֵׁב עֲלֵיכֶם מַחֲשָׁבָה שׁוּבוּ נָא אִישׁ מִדַּרְכֹּו הָרָעָה וְהֵיטִיבוּ דַרְכֵיכֶם וּמַעַלְלֵיכֶם׃
12"But they say, 'That is in vain! We will follow our own plans, and will every one act according to the stubbornness of his evil heart.' וְאָמְרוּ נֹואָשׁ כִּי־אַחֲרֵי מַחְשְׁבֹותֵינוּ נֵלֵךְ וְאִישׁ שְׁרִרוּת לִבֹּו־הָרָע נַעֲשֶׂה׃ ס
