Jeremiah 11:16-18

Young's Literal Translation

¹⁶ `An olive, green, fair, of goodly fruit,' Hath Jehovah called thy name, At the noise of a great tumult He hath kindled fire against it, And broken have been its thin branches.

¹⁷ And Jehovah of Hosts, who is planting thee, Hath spoken evil concerning thee, For the evil of the house of Israel, and of the house of Judah, That they have done to themselves, To provoke Me to anger, to make perfume to Baal.

¹⁸ And, O Jehovah, cause me to know, and I know, Then Thou hast showed me their doings.
