Two Visions

11 Then the word of the Lord came to me, asking, “What do you see, Jeremiah?” (A)

I replied, “I see a branch of an almond tree.”

12 The Lord said to me, “You have seen correctly, for I watch over[a] my word to accomplish it.”(B) 13 Again the word of the Lord came to me asking, “What do you see?”

And I replied, “I see a boiling pot,(C) its lip tilted from the north to the south.”
