Jeremiah 11:9-17
9And YhwhH3068 saidH559 unto me, A conspiracyH7195 is foundH4672 among the menH376 of JudahH3063, and among the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389. 10They are turned backH7725 to the iniquitiesH5771 of their forefathersH1H7223, which refusedH3985 to hearH8085 my wordsH1697; and they wentH1980 afterH310 otherH312 godsH430 to serveH5647 them: the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 and the houseH1004 of JudahH3063 have brokenH6565 my covenantH1285 which I madeH3772 with their fathersH1.
11Therefore thus saithH559 YhwhH3068, Behold, I will bringH935 evilH7451 upon them, which they shall not be ableH3201 to escapeH3318; and though they shall cryH2199 unto me, I will not hearkenH8085 unto them.1 12Then shall the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063 and inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389 goH1980, and cryH2199 unto the godsH430 unto whom they offer incenseH6999: but they shall not saveH3467 them at allH3467 in the timeH6256 of their troubleH7451.2 13For according to the numberH4557 of thy citiesH5892 were thy godsH430, O JudahH3063; and according to the numberH4557 of the streetsH2351 of JerusalemH3389 have ye set upH7760 altarsH4196 to that shameful thingH1322, even altarsH4196 to burn incenseH6999 unto BaalH1168.3 14Therefore prayH6419 not thou for this peopleH5971, neither lift upH5375 a cryH7440 or prayerH8605 for them: for I will not hearH8085 them in the timeH6256 that they cryH7121 unto me for their troubleH7451.4 15What hath my belovedH3039 to do in mine houseH1004, seeing she hath wroughtH6213 lewdnessH4209 with manyH7227, and the holyH6944 fleshH1320 is passedH5674 from thee? when thou doest evilH7451, then thou rejoicestH5937.56 16YhwhH3068 calledH7121 thy nameH8034, A greenH7488 olive treeH2132, fairH3303, and of goodlyH8389 fruitH6529: with the noiseH6963 of a greatH1419 tumultH1999 he hath kindledH3341 fireH784 upon it, and the branchesH1808 of it are brokenH7489. 17For YhwhH3068 of ArmiesH6635, that plantedH5193 thee, hath pronouncedH1696 evilH7451 against thee, forH1558 the evilH7451 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 and of the houseH1004 of JudahH3063, which they have doneH6213 against themselves to provoke me to angerH3707 in offering incenseH6999 unto BaalH1168.
