Jeremiah 11:10-12

International Standard Version

¹⁰ They have turned back to the iniquities of their ancestors of old^[a] who refused to listen to my words. They followed other gods to serve them. The house of Israel and the house of Judah broke my covenant which I made with their ancestors.”

¹¹ Therefore, this is what the Lord says: “I’m about to bring disaster on them from which they won’t be able to escape. They’ll cry out to me, but I won’t listen to them. ¹² The towns of Judah and the residents of Jerusalem will go and cry out to the gods to whom they burn incense, but they’ll be no help at all to them^[b] in the time of their disaster.
