Context of Jeremiah 7:14

12“But go now to My place which was in Shiloh, where I made My name dwell at the beginning, and see what I did to it because of the wickedness of My people Israel. 13And now, because you have done all these things,” declares the Lord, “and I spoke to you, speaking again and again, but you did not listen, and I called you but you did not answer, therefore I will do to the house which is called by My name, in which you trust, and to the place which I gave you and your fathers, just as I did to Shiloh. 15I will hurl you out of My sight, just as I have hurled out all your brothers, all the descendants of Ephraim. 16“As for you, do not pray for this people, and do not lift up a cry or prayer for them, and do not plead with Me; for I am not listening to you.

• Tyndale Open Study Notes · v. 13-15The people of the northern kingdom had acted like Judah was acting now.
