10 Mira que te he puesto en este día sobre gentes y sobre reinos, para arrancar y para destruir, y para arruinar y para derribar, y para edificar y para plantar.

11 Y la palabra de Jehová fué á mí, diciendo: ¿Qué ves tú, Jeremías? Y dije: Yo veo una vara de almendro.

12 Y díjome Jehová: Bien has visto; porque yo apresuro mi palabra para ponerla por obra.

13 Y fué á mí palabra de Jehová segunda vez, diciendo: ¿Qué ves tú? Y dije: Yo veo una olla que hierve; y su haz está de la parte del aquilón.

14 Y díjome Jehová: Del aquilón se soltará el mal sobre todos los moradores de la tierra.
