Unchecked Copy BoxJer 11:3 - and say to them, ‘This is what the LORD, the God of Israel says: “Cursed is the one who does not obey the words of this covenant
Unchecked Copy BoxJer 11:4 - which I commanded your forefathers on the day that I brought them out of the land of Egypt, from the iron furnace, saying, ‘Listen to My voice, and [fn]do according to all that I command you; so you shall be My people, and I will be your God,’
Unchecked Copy BoxJer 11:5 - in order to confirm the oath which I swore to your forefathers, to give them a land flowing with milk and honey, as it is this day.”’” Then I replied, “Amen, LORD.”

And the LORD said to me, “Proclaim all these words in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem, saying, ‘Hear the words of this covenant and do them.

Unchecked Copy BoxJer 11:8 - ‘Yet they did not obey or incline their ear, but walked in the stubbornness of their evil heart, each one of them; therefore I brought on them all the words of this covenant which I commanded them to do, but they did not.’”

Then the LORD said to me, “A conspiracy has been found among the men of Judah and among the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

Unchecked Copy BoxJer 11:10 - “They have turned back to the wrongdoings of their [fn]ancestors who refused to hear My words, and they have followed other gods to serve them. The house of Israel and the house of Judah have broken My covenant which I made with their fathers.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJer 11:11 - Therefore this is what the LORD says: “Behold, I am bringing disaster on them which they will not be able to escape; though they will cry out to Me, I will not listen to them.

When she has carried out many evil schemes?

The LORD named you

“A green olive tree, beautiful in fruit and form”;

With the noise of a great [fn]tumult

He has set fire to it,

And its branches are worthless.

The LORD of armies, who planted you, has pronounced evil against you because of the evil of the house of Israel and the house of Judah, which they have [fn]done to provoke Me by [fn]offering sacrifices to Baal.

Moreover, the LORD made it known to me and I knew it;

Then You showed me their deeds.

Unchecked Copy BoxJer 11:19 -

But I was like a gentle lamb led to the slaughter;

And I did not know that they had devised plots against me, saying,

“Let’s destroy the tree with its [fn]fruit,

And let’s cut him off from the land of the living,

So that his name will no longer be remembered.”

Unchecked Copy BoxJer 11:20 -

But, LORD of armies, who judges righteously,

Who puts the [fn]feelings and the heart to the test,

Let me see Your vengeance on them,

For to You I have [fn]committed my cause.

Unchecked Copy BoxJer 11:21 -

Unchecked Copy BoxJer 11:22 - therefore, this is what the LORD of armies says: “Behold, I am going to punish them! The young men will die by the sword, their sons and daughters will die by famine;
Unchecked Copy BoxJer 11:23 - and a remnant will not be left to them, because I will bring disaster on the people of Anathoth—the year of their punishment.”
