Jeremiah 1:13-16
Christian Standard Bible
13 Again the word of the Lord came to me asking, “What do you see?”
And I replied, “I see a boiling pot,(A) its lip tilted from the north to the south.”
14 Then the Lord said to me, “Disaster will be poured out[a] from the north(B) on all who live in the land. 15 Indeed, I am about to summon all the clans and kingdoms of the north.”(C)
This is the Lord’s declaration.
They will come, and each king will set up his throne
at the entrance to Jerusalem’s gates.
They will attack all her surrounding walls
and all the other cities of Judah.
16 “I will pronounce my judgments against them for all the evil they did when they abandoned me to burn incense to other gods and to worship the works of their own hands.(D)

Jeremiah 1:13-16
Lexham English Bible
13 And the word of Yahweh came to me a second time, saying,[a] “What are you seeing?” And I said, “I am seeing a boiling[b] pot, and its face is from the face of the north.” 14 Then Yahweh said to me, “From the north disaster will be unleashed[c] on all the inhabitants of the land. 15 For, look, I am calling to all the clans[d] of the kingdoms of the north,” declares[e] Yahweh, “and they will come and set each one his throne at the entrance of the gates of Jerusalem, and against all its surrounding walls, and against all the cities of Judah. 16 And I will pass[f] my judgments on them because of all their wickedness in that they have forsaken me, and they made sacrifices to other gods, and they bowed in worship to the works of their hands.
