Jeremiah 11:9–12

9 The Lord said to me, “A conspiracy has been discovered among the men of Judahp and the residents of Jerusalem. 10 They have returned to the iniquities of their ancestorsq who refused to obey my words and have followed other gods to worship them.r The house of Israel and the house of Judah broke my covenant I made with their ancestors.

11 “Therefore, this is what the Lord says: I am about to bring on them disaster that they cannot escape.s They will cry out to me, but I will not hear them. 12 Then the cities of Judah and the residents of Jerusalem will go and cry out to the gods they have been burning incense to, but they certainly will not save them in their time of disaster.t
