Jeremiah 18:7-10 Revised Version 1885 (RV1885)

7. At what instant I shall speak concerning a nation, and concerning a kingdom, to pluck up and to break down and to destroy it;

8. if that nation, concerning which I have spoken, turn from their evil, I will repent of the evil that I thought to do unto them.

9. And at what instant I shall speak concerning a nation, and concerning a kingdom, to build and to plant it;

10. if it do evil in my sight, that it obey not my voice, then I will repent of the good, wherewith I said I would benefit them.
