Jeremiah 11:16-17

16The Lord called your name, “A 1green olive tree, beautiful in fruit and form”; With the 2noise of a great tumult He has 3kindled fire on it, And its branches are worthless. 17The Lord of hosts, who 4planted you, has 5pronounced evil against you because of the evil of the house of Israel and of the house of Judah, which they have 6done to provoke Me by 78offering up sacrifices to Baal.
