Jeremiah 11:9-11

Good News Translation

⁹ Then the Lord said to me, “The people of Judah and of Jerusalem are plotting against me. ¹⁰ They have gone back to the sins of their ancestors, who refused to do what I said; they have worshiped other gods. Both Israel and Judah have broken the covenant that I made with their ancestors. ¹¹ So now I, the Lord, warn them that I am going to bring destruction on them, and they will not escape. And when they cry out to me for help, I will not listen to them.
