24_JER_11_01 The word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying,

24_JER_11_02 Hear ye the words of this covenant, and speak unto the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of
Jerusalem;

24_JER_11_03 And say thou unto them, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel; Cursed [be] the man that obeyeth not
the words of this covenant,

24_JER_11_04 Which I commanded your fathers in the day [that] I brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, from
the iron furnace, saying, Obey my voice, and do them, according to all which I command you: so shall ye be my
people, and I will be your God:

24_JER_11_05 That I may perform the oath which I have sworn unto your fathers, to give them a land flowing with
milk and honey, as [it is] this day. Then answered I, and said, So be it, O LORD.

24_JER_11_06 Then the LORD said unto me, Proclaim all these words in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of
Jerusalem, saying, Hear ye the words of this covenant, and do them.

24_JER_11_07 For I earnestly protested unto your fathers in the day [that] I brought them up out of the land of
Egypt, [even] unto this day, rising early and protesting, saying, Obey my voice.

24_JER_11_08 Yet they obeyed not, nor inclined their ear, but walked every one in the imagination of their evil
heart: therefore I will bring upon them all the words of this covenant, which I commanded [them] to do; but they did
[them] not.

24_JER_11_09 And the LORD said unto me, A conspiracy is found among the men of Judah, and among the
inhabitants of Jerusalem.

24_JER_11_10 They are turned back to the iniquities of their forefathers, which refused to hear my words; and they
went 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.

24_JER_11_11 Therefore thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will bring evil upon them, which they shall not be able to
escape; and though they shall cry unto me, I will not hearken unto them.

24_JER_11_12 Then shall the cities of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem go, and cry unto the gods unto whom they
offer incense: but they shall not save them at all in the time of their trouble.

24_JER_11_13 For [according to] the number of thy cities were thy gods, O Judah; and [according to] the number of
the streets of Jerusalem have ye set up altars to [that] shameful thing, [even] altars to burn incense unto Baal.

24_JER_11_14 Therefore pray not thou for this people, neither lift up a cry or prayer for them: for I will not hear
[them] in the time that they cry unto me for their trouble.

24_JER_11_15 What hath my beloved to do in mine house, [seeing] she hath wrought lewdness with many, and the
holy flesh is passed from thee? when thou doest evil, then thou rejoicest.

24_JER_11_16 The LORD called thy name, A green olive tree, fair, [and] of goodly fruit: with the noise of a great
tumult he hath kindled fire upon it, and the branches of it are broken.

24_JER_11_17 For the LORD of hosts, that planted thee, hath pronounced evil against thee, for the evil of the house
of Israel and of the house of Judah, which they have done against themselves to provoke me to anger in offering
incense unto Baal.

24_JER_11_18 And the LORD hath given me knowledge [of it], and I know [it]: then thou showedst me their doings.

24_JER_11_19 But I [was] like a lamb [or] an ox [that] is brought to the slaughter; and I knew not that they had
devised devices against me, [saying], Let us destroy the tree with the fruit thereof, and let us cut him off from the land
of the living, that his name may be no more remembered.

24_JER_11_20 But, O LORD of hosts, that judgest righteously, that triest the reins and the heart, let me see thy
vengeance on them: for unto thee have I revealed my cause.

24_JER_11_21 Therefore thus saith the LORD of the men of Anathoth, that seek thy life, saying, Prophesy not in the
name of the LORD, that thou die not by our hand:

24_JER_11_22 Therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts, Behold, I will punish them: the young men shall die by the
sword; their sons and their daughters shall die by famine:

24_JER_11_23 And there shall be no remnant of them: for I will bring evil upon the men of Anathoth, [even] the year
of their visitation.
