Jeremiah 11:11-17

11ThereforeH3651 thisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH3068 saysH559: “BeholdH2009, I am 1bringingH935 disasterH7463 on them whichH834 they will 2not beH3201 ableH3201 to escapeH3318H4480; though they will 3cryH2199 outH2199 to Me, I will not listenH8085 to them. 12Then the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063 and the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389 will 4goH1980 and cryH2199 outH2199 to the godsH430 to whomH834 they 5burnH6999 incenseH6999, but they certainlyH3467 will not saveH3467 them in the timeH6256 of their disasterH7463. 13For your godsH430 are 67as manyH4557 as your citiesH5892, JudahH3063; and 8as manyH4557 as the streetsH2351 of JerusalemH3389 are the altarsH4196 you have setH7760 upH7760 to the 9shamefulH1322 thingH1322, altarsH4196 for 1011burningH6999 incenseH6999 to BaalH1168.

14“So as for you, 12do not prayH6419 for thisH2088 peopleH5971, norH408 liftH5375 upH5375 a cryH7440 or prayerH8605 for them; for I will 13not listenH8085 whenH6256 they callH7121 to Me becauseH1157 of their disasterH7463.15WhatH4100 right has My 14belovedH3039 in My houseH1004 WhenH3588 15she has carriedH6213 outH6213 manyH7227 evilH4209 schemesH4209? Can the sacrificialH6944 fleshH1320 takeH5674 awayH5674 from you your disasterH7463, 16SoH227 that you can rejoiceH5937?”16The LordH3068 namedH7121H8034 you “A 17greenH7488 oliveH2132 treeH2132, beautifulH3303 in fruitH6529 and formH8389”; With the 18noiseH6963 of a greatH1419 19tumultH1999 He has 20setH3341 fireH784 to it, And its branchesH1808 are worthlessH7489. 17The LordH3068 of armiesH6635, who 21plantedH5193 you, has 22pronouncedH1696 evilH7463 againstH5921 you becauseH1558 of the evilH7463 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 and the houseH1004 of JudahH3063, whichH834 they have 23doneH6213 to provokeH3707 Me by 2425offeringH6999 sacrificesH6999 to BaalH1168.
