Jeremiah 18:8
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
But if that nation I warned turns from its evil, then I will relent of the disaster I had planned to bring.
In context
6 “O house of Israel, declares the LORD, can I not treat you as this potter treats his clay? Just like clay in the potter’s hand, so are you in My hand, O house of Israel.
7 At any time I might announce that a nation or kingdom will be uprooted, torn down, and destroyed.
8 But if that nation I warned turns from its evil, then I will relent of the disaster I had planned to bring.
9 And if at another time I announce that I will build up and establish a nation or kingdom,
10 and if it does evil in My sight and does not listen to My voice, then I will relent of the good I had intended for it.
