Jeremiah 11:16-19

11:16

The LORD
<03068>

called
<07121> (8804)

thy name
<08034>_,

A green
<07488>

olive tree
<02132>_,

fair
<03303>_,

[and] of goodly
<08389>

fruit
<06529>_:

with the noise
<06963>

of a great
<01419>

tumult
<01999>

he hath kindled
<03341> (8689)

fire
<0784>

upon it, and the branches
<01808>

of it are broken
<07489> (8804)_.

11:17

For the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_,

that planted
<05193> (8802)

thee, hath pronounced
<01696> (8765)

evil
<07451>

against thee, for
<01558>

the evil
<07451>

of the house
<01004>

of Israel
<03478>

and of the house
<01004>

of Judah
<03063>_,

which they have done
<06213> (8804)

against themselves to provoke me to anger
<03707> (8687)

in offering incense
<06999> (8763)

unto Baal
<01168>_.

11:18

And the LORD
<03068>

hath given me knowledge
<03045> (8799)

[of it], and I know
<03045> (8689)

[it]: then thou shewedst
<07200> (8689)

me their doings
<04611>_.

11:19

But I [was] like a lamb
<03532>

[or] an ox
<0441>

[that] is brought
<02986> (8714)

to the slaughter
<02873> (8800)_;

and I knew
<03045> (8804)

not that they had devised
<02803> (8804)

devices
<04284>

against me, [saying], Let us destroy
<07843> (8686)

the tree
<06086>

with the fruit
<03899>

thereof, and let us cut him off
<03772> (8799)

from the land
<0776>

of the living
<02416>_,

that his name
<08034>

may be no more remembered
<02142> (8735)_.
