The earthenware flask

1Thus says Yahweh: Go and buy a potter’s earthenware flask, and take some of the elders of the people and some of the elders of the priests,

2and go out to the Valley of Ben Hinnom, which is at the entrance of the Potsherd Gate, and proclaim there the words that I will speak to you.

3And say, ‘Hear the word of the LORD, O kings of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem. Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: Behold, I am bringing disaster on this place, at which everyone who hears of it—his ears will tingle.’
