The verse 2 is found in chapter 18 of Jeremiah. At the potter’s house Jeremiah observes how clay is reshaped according to the craftsman’s will. God explicitly applies the image to Israel: a nation can be transformed if it repents, and a sentence can be withdrawn if its conduct changes. The metaphor emphasizes God’s sovereignty without making the people passive objects, because their moral response matters.

Mache dich auf und gehe hinab in des Töpfers Haus; daselbst will ich dich meine Worte hören lassen.
Levántate, y vete a casa del alfarero, y allí te haré oír mis palabras.
«Levántate y baja a la casa del alfarero; allí te haré oír mis palabras».
Lève-toi, et descends dans la maison du potier; Là, je te ferai entendre mes paroles.
Levati, e scendi in casa di un vasellaio, e quivi ti farò intender le mie parole.
Levanta-te, e desce à casa do oleiro, e lá te farei ouvir as minhas palavras.
「你起來,下到陶匠的家裏去,在那裏我要使你聽見我的話。」
