2 Levanta-te, e desce à casa do oleiro; e ali te farei ouvir minhas palavras.

3 Então desci à casa do oleiro, e eis que ele estava fazendo uma obra sobre a roda.

4 E o vaso de barro que ele estava fazendo se quebrou na mão do oleiro; então ele voltou a fazer dele outro vaso, conforme o que ao oleiro pareceu melhor fazer.

5 Então veio a mim palavra do SENHOR, dizendo:

6 Por acaso não poderei eu fazer de vós como este oleiro, ó casa de Israel?diz o SENHOR. Eis que tal como o barro na mão do oleiro, assim sois vós em minha mão, ó casa de Israel.
