Sebab itu, katakanlah kepada orang Yehuda dan kepada penduduk Yerusalem: Beginilah firman TUHAN: Sesungguhnya, Aku ini sedang menyiapkan malapetaka terhadap kamu dan merancangkan rencana terhadap kamu. Baiklah kamu masing-masing bertobat dari tingkah langkahmu yang jahat, dan perbaikilah tingkah langkahmu dan perbuatanmu!
Sekarangpun katakanlah olehmu ini kepada segala orang Yehuda dan kepada segala orang isi Yeruzalem: Demikianlah firman Tuhan: Bahwasanya Aku berniatkan suatu jahat atas kamu dan Aku memikirkan suatu kepikiran lawan kamu; sebab itu hendaklah kamu bertobat masing-masing dari pada jalannya yang jahat, dan betulkanlah kelakuanmu dan perbuatanmu.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Now therefore go to,.... This is the application of the above general rules of procedure to the people of the Jews, and particularly that which relates to the destruction of a nation or kingdom, and the declaration of it in order to reclaim them:
speak to the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem,
saying, thus saith the Lord; or, "to the man of Judah" u; the body of the Jewish nation, and especially the inhabitants of the metropolis of it; which was the source of sin to the whole kingdom, and on which the calamity threatened would chiefly come, if not prevented by a reformation:
behold, I frame evil against you; as the potter frames his clay upon the wheel, to which the allusion is; which is to be understood of the evil of punishment, but not of any secret purpose, and settled determination, in the mind of God to bring it upon them; for that is never disannulled by himself or others, or ever changed; but some operation in Providence, which began to work towards their destruction; some providential step which God had taken, and which threatened their ruin:
and devise a device against you; the same as before; by which it looked as if he had thought of the matter, and had contrived a scheme, which if he went on with, would issue in the subversion of their whole state:
return you everyone from his evil way; that so the reformation may be as general as the corruption was: it supposes a sense of the evil of their former conduct, and repentance for their sins, of which their forsaking and abstaining from them would be an evidence:
and make your ways and your doings good; for it is not sufficient barely to abstain from sin, which is only a negative holiness; but there must be a performance of good works, a walking in them, a constant series and course of obedience to God, according to the rule of his word.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The word rendered “frame” is a present participle, and is the same which as a noun means “a potter.” God declares that He is as free to do what He will with the Jews as the potter is free to shape as he will the clay.
Devise a device - “I am purposing a purpose.”
