Jeremiah 11:15-17
Legacy Standard Bible
15 What possession has My (A)beloved in My house
When (B)she has done many schemes of wickedness?
Can the flesh, which is set apart as holy, take away from you your calamity,
[a]So that you can exult?”
16 Yahweh called your name,
“A (C)green olive tree, beautiful in fruit and form”;
With the (D)noise of a great tumult
He has (E)kindled fire on it,
And its foliage has an evil demise.
17 Yahweh of hosts, who (F)planted you, has (G)spoken forth evil against you because of the evil of the house of Israel and of the house of Judah, which they have [b]done to provoke Me to anger by (H)burning incense to Baal.

15 “What right has My (A)beloved in My house
When (B)she has done many vile deeds?
Can the sacrificial flesh take away from you your disaster,
[a]So that you can rejoice?”
16 The Lord called your name,
“A (C)green olive tree, beautiful in fruit and form”;
With the (D)noise of a great tumult
He has (E)kindled fire on it,
And its branches are worthless.
17 The Lord of hosts, who (F)planted you, has (G)pronounced evil against you because of the evil of the house of Israel and of the house of Judah, which they have [b]done to provoke Me by [c](H)offering up sacrifices to Baal.

New International Version
15 “What is my beloved doing in my temple
as she, with many others, works out her evil schemes?
Can consecrated meat(A) avert your punishment?(B)
When you engage in your wickedness,
then you rejoice.[a]”
16 The Lord called you a thriving olive tree(C)
with fruit beautiful in form.
But with the roar of a mighty storm
he will set it on fire,(D)
and its branches will be broken.(E)
17 The Lord Almighty, who planted(F) you, has decreed disaster(G) for you, because the people of both Israel and Judah have done evil and aroused(H) my anger by burning incense to Baal.(I)
