New Living Translation NLT
New International Version NIV
7 If I announce that a certain nation or kingdom is to be uprooted, torn down, and destroyed,
7
If at any time I announce that a nation or kingdom is to be uprooted, torn down and destroyed,
8 but then that nation renounces its evil ways, I will not destroy it as I had planned.
8
and if that nation I warned repents of its evil, then I will relent and not inflict on it the disaster I had planned.
9 And if I announce that I will plant and build up a certain nation or kingdom,
9
And if at another time I announce that a nation or kingdom is to be built up and planted,
10 but then that nation turns to evil and refuses to obey me, I will not bless it as I said I would.
10
and if it does evil in my sight and does not obey me, then I will reconsider the good I had intended to do for it.
