“O sambahayan ng Israel, hindi ba Ako makagagawa sa inyo nang tulad ng ginagawa ng magpapalayok na ito?” sabi ng Walang-Hanggan. “Narito, kung paanong ang luwad ay nasa kamay ng magpapalayok, gayundin kayo ay nasa Aking kamay, O sambahayan ng Israel.”

Can I (Hashem) not do with you (Jews) like the potter does with the clay? He makes from it a different vessel after he has destroyed the first.
Metzudat David
Really, like the clay is in the potters hands to do with it as he wants, you are in my (Hashem's) hands.
