11 Has this house,(A) which bears my Name, become a den of robbers(B) to you? But I have been watching!(C) declares the Lord.

12 “‘Go now to the place in Shiloh(D) where I first made a dwelling(E) for my Name,(F) and see what I did(G) to it because of the wickedness of my people Israel. 13 While you were doing all these things, declares the Lord, I spoke(H) to you again and again,(I) but you did not listen;(J) I called(K) you, but you did not answer.(L) 14 Therefore, what I did to Shiloh(M) I will now do to the house that bears my Name,(N) the temple(O) you trust in, the place I gave to you and your ancestors. 15 I will thrust you from my presence,(P) just as I did all your fellow Israelites, the people of Ephraim.’(Q)

11 Is this house, which is called by my name, become a den of robbers in your eyes? Behold, even I have seen it, saith the Lord.

12 But go ye now unto my place which was in Shiloh, where I set my name at the first, and see what I did to it for the wickedness of my people Israel.

14 Therefore will I do unto this house, which is called by my name, wherein ye trust, and unto the place which I gave to you and to your fathers, as I have done to Shiloh.

15 And I will cast you out of my sight, as I have cast out all your brethren, even the whole seed of Ephraim.

16 Therefore pray not thou for this people, neither lift up cry nor prayer for them, neither make intercession to me: for I will not hear thee.
