Jeremiah 18:7-9

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁷ I will suddenly speak against a nation, and against a kingdom, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy it.

⁸ If that nation against which I have spoken, shall repent of their evil, I also will repent of the evil that I have thought to do to them.

⁹ And I will suddenly speak of a nation and of a kingdom, to build up and plant it.
