Jeremiah 1:11-14
11
Moreover the word of Yahweh came to me, saying, "Jeremiah, what do you see?" I said, "I see a branch of an almond tree."
12
Then Yahweh said to me, "You have seen well; for I watch over my word to perform it."
13
The word of Yahweh came to me the second time, saying, "What do you see?" I said, "I see a boiling caldron; and it is tipping away from the north."
14
Then Yahweh said to me, "Out of the north evil will break out on all the inhabitants of the land.
