The Lord also said to me:

A conspiracy has been uncovered among the men of Judah and those who live in Jerusalem. 10 They have returned to the sins of their fathers, who refused to obey my words. They are following other gods and serving them. The house of Israel and the house of Judah have broken the covenant I made with their fathers.

11 Therefore this is what the Lord says. Watch this. I am going to bring a disaster on them that they will not be able to escape. They will cry out to me, but I will not listen to them. 12 Then the cities of Judah and those who live in Jerusalem will cry out to the gods to whom they have been burning offerings, but who cannot do anything to save them in the time of trouble. 13 Judah, you have as many gods as you have towns. You have set up as many altars to burn offerings to Shame—that is, to Baal—as there are streets in Jerusalem.

Then the Lord said to me, “There is a conspiracy(A) among the people of Judah and those who live in Jerusalem. 10 They have returned to the sins of their ancestors,(B) who refused to listen to my words.(C) They have followed other gods(D) to serve them.(E) Both Israel and Judah have broken the covenant(F) I made with their ancestors. 11 Therefore this is what the Lord says: ‘I will bring on them a disaster(G) they cannot escape.(H) Although they cry(I) out to me, I will not listen(J) to them. 12 The towns of Judah and the people of Jerusalem will go and cry out to the gods to whom they burn incense,(K) but they will not help them at all when disaster(L) strikes. 13 You, Judah, have as many gods(M) as you have towns;(N) and the altars you have set up to burn incense(O) to that shameful(P) god Baal are as many as the streets of Jerusalem.’
