  1. Jeremiah 1:14 Lit will be opened

13 And the word of the Lord came to me the second time, saying, “What do you see?”

And I said, “I see (A)a boiling pot, and it is facing away from the north.”

14 Then the Lord said to me:

“Out of the (B)north calamity shall break forth
On all the inhabitants of the land.
15 For behold, I am (C)calling
All the families of the kingdoms of the north,” says the Lord;
“They shall come and (D)each one set his throne
At the entrance of the gates of Jerusalem,
Against all its walls all around,
And against all the cities of Judah.
16 I will utter My judgments
Against them concerning all their wickedness,
Because (E)they have forsaken Me,
Burned (F)incense to other gods,
And worshiped the works of their own (G)hands.
