Jeremiah 11:14-17
14“So as for you, 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 carried out many evil schemes? Can the sacrificial flesh take away from you your disaster, 5So that you can rejoice?”16The Lord named you “A 6green olive tree, beautiful in fruit and form”; With the 7noise of a great 8tumult He has 9set fire to it, And its branches are worthless. 17The Lord of armies, who 10planted you, has 11pronounced evil against you because of the evil of the house of Israel and the house of Judah, which they have 12done to provoke Me by 1314offering sacrifices to Baal.
