New International Version
10 See, today I appoint you over nations(A) and kingdoms to uproot(B) and tear down, to destroy and overthrow, to build and to plant.”(C)
11 The word of the Lord came to me: “What do you see, Jeremiah?”(D)
“I see the branch of an almond tree,” I replied.
12 The Lord said to me, “You have seen correctly, for I am watching[a](E) to see that my word is fulfilled.”

“I see a pot that is boiling,” I answered. “It is tilting toward us from the north.”
