Jeremiah 11:13-16 New King James Version (NKJV)

13. For according to the number of your cities were your gods, O Judah; and according to the number of the streets of Jerusalem you have set up altars to that shameful thing, altars to burn incense to Baal.

14. “So do not pray for this people, or lift up a cry or prayer for them; for I will not hear them in the time that they cry out to Me because of their trouble.

15. “What has My beloved to do in My house,Having done lewd deeds with many?And the holy flesh has passed from you.When you do evil, then you rejoice.

16. The Lord called your name,Green Olive Tree, Lovely and of Good Fruit.With the noise of a great tumultHe has kindled fire on it,And its branches are broken.
