Jeremiah 11:9-17
9And Jehovah saidH559 unto me, A conspiracyH7195 is foundH4672 among the menH376 of JudahH3063, and among the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389. 10They are turnedH7725 backH7725 to the iniquitiesH5771 of their forefathers, who refusedH3985 to hearH8085 my wordsH1697; and they are goneH1980 after otherH312 godsH430 to serveH5647 them: the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 and the houseH1004 of JudahH3063 have brokenH6565 my covenantH1285 which I madeH3772 with their fathersH1. 11ThereforeH3651 thusH3541 saith Jehovah, Behold, I will bringH935 evilH7451 upon them, which they shall not be ableH3201 to escape; and they shall cryH2199 unto me, but I will not hearken unto them. 12Then shall the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063 and the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389 goH1980 and cryH2199 unto the godsH430 unto which they offer incenseH6999: but they will not saveH3467 them at all in the timeH6256 of their troubleH7451. 13For according to the numberH4557 of thy citiesH5892 are thy godsH430, O JudahH3063; and according to the numberH4557 of the streetsH2351 of JerusalemH3389 have ye setH7760 up altarsH4196 to the shamefulH1322 thingH1322, even altarsH4196 to burn incenseH6999 unto BaalH1168.
14Therefore prayH6419 not thou for this peopleH5971, neither liftH5375 up cry nor prayerH8605 for them; for I will not hearH8085 them in the timeH6256 that they cry unto me because of their troubleH7451. 15What hath my belovedH3039 to do in my houseH1004, seeing she hath wrought lewdness with manyH7227, and the holyH6944 fleshH1320 is passedH5674 from thee? when thou doest evilH7451, thenH227 thou rejoicest. 16Jehovah calledH7121 thy nameH8034, A green olive-tree, fair with goodly fruitH6529: with the noise of a greatH1419 tumult he hath kindledH3341 fireH784 upon it, and the branchesH1808 of it are broken. 17For Jehovah of hostsH6635, who plantedH5193 thee, hath pronounced evilH7451 against thee, because of the evilH7451 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 and of the houseH1004 of JudahH3063, which they have wrought for themselves in provokingH3707 me to angerH3707 by offering incenseH6999 unto BaalH1168.
