Jeremiah 18:9

And there are times when I promise to build up and establish ¹  a nation or kingdom.

And if at another time I announce that a nation or kingdom is to be built up and planted,

"Or at another moment I might speak concerning a nation or concerning a kingdom to build up or to plant it;

And if I announce that I will build up and plant a certain nation or kingdom, making it strong and great,

At another time I might decide to plant a people or country,

And whenever I say anything about building up a nation or a kingdom, and planting it;

And at another moment I may declare concerning a nation or a kingdom that I will build and plant it,

"And the instant I speak concerning a nation and concerning a kingdom, to build and to plant it ,

And there are times when I promise to build up and establish ¹  a nation or kingdom.

¹ sn Heb “plant.” The terms “uproot,” “tear down,” “destroy,” “build,” and “plant” are the two sides of the ministry Jeremiah was called to (cf. Jer 1:10).
