Unchecked Copy BoxJer 11:2 - “Hear the words of this covenant, and speak to the men of Judah and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem;
Unchecked Copy BoxJer 11:3 - and say to them, ‘Thus says the LORD, the God of Israel, “Cursed is the man who does not heed the words of this covenant
Unchecked Copy BoxJer 11:4 - which I commanded your forefathers in 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 which 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 said, “Amen, O LORD.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJer 11:6 - 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, each one, in the stubbornness of his evil heart; therefore I brought on them all the words of this covenant, which I commanded them to do, but they did not.’”
Unchecked Copy BoxJer 11:9 - 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 iniquities of their [fn]ancestors who refused to hear My words, and they have gone after 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 thus says the LORD, “Behold I am bringing disaster on them which they will not be able to escape; though they will cry to Me, yet I will not listen to them.

Unchecked Copy BoxJer 11:13 - “For your gods are [fn]as many as your cities, O Judah; and [fn]as many as the streets of Jerusalem are the altars you have set up to the shameful thing, altars to burn incense to Baal.
Unchecked Copy BoxJer 11:14 - “Therefore do not pray for this people, nor lift up a cry or prayer for them; for I will not listen when they call to Me because of their disaster.
Unchecked Copy BoxJer 11:15 - “What right has My beloved in My house
When she has done many vile deeds?
Can the sacrificial flesh take away from you your disaster,
[fn]So that you can rejoice?”
Unchecked Copy BoxJer 11:16 - The LORD called your name,
“A green olive tree, beautiful in fruit and form”;
With the noise of a great tumult
He has kindled fire on it,
And its branches are worthless.
Unchecked Copy BoxJer 11:17 - The LORD of hosts, who planted you, has pronounced evil against you because of the evil of the house of Israel and of the house of Judah, which they have [fn]done to provoke Me by [fn]offering up sacrifices to Baal.

Plots against Jeremiah

Unchecked Copy BoxJer 11:18 - 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 us destroy the tree with its [fn]fruit,
And let us cut him off from the land of the living,
That his name be remembered no more.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJer 11:20 - But, O LORD of hosts, who judges righteously,
Who tries the [fn]feelings and the heart,
Let me see Your vengeance on them,
For to You have I [fn]committed my cause.
Unchecked Copy BoxJer 11:21 - Therefore thus says the LORD concerning the men of Anathoth, who seek your life, saying, “Do not prophesy in the name of the LORD, so that you will not die at our hand”;
Unchecked Copy BoxJer 11:22 - therefore, thus says the LORD of hosts, “Behold, I am about 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, for I will bring disaster on the men of Anathoth—the year of their punishment.”
