Jeremiah 18:4-6

New Catholic Bible

⁴ Whenever the vessel he was making of clay turned out badly in his hands, he would use that clay to remold it into another vessel as he saw fit.

⁵ Then the word of the Lord came to me: ⁶ Can I not do to you what this potter does, O house of Israel? Like the clay in the hand of the potter, so are you in my hand, O house of Israel.
