Jeremiah 11:14-17
14“Therefore 1do not pray for this people, nor lift up a cry or prayer for them; for I will 2not listen when they call to Me because of their disaster.15What right has My 3beloved in My house When 4she has done many vile deeds? Can the sacrificial flesh take away from you your disaster, 5So that you can rejoice?”16The Lord called your name, “A 6green olive tree, beautiful in fruit and form”; With the 7noise of a great tumult He has 8kindled fire on it, And its branches are worthless. 17The Lord of hosts, who 9planted you, has 10pronounced evil against you because of the evil of the house of Israel and of the house of Judah, which they have 11done to provoke Me by 1213offering up sacrifices to Baal.
