Jeremiah 11, verse 16-17
Source: Bible New International Version
16 The Lord called you a thriving olive tree with fruit beautiful in form. But with the roar of a mighty storm he will set it on fire, and its branches will be broken.
17 The Lord Almighty, who planted you, has decreed disaster for you, because the people of both Israel and Judah have done evil and aroused my anger by burning incense to Baal.
16 خداوند نے تمہیں ایک نام دیا تھا۔ خداوند نے تمہا رانام 'اچھا پھل وا لا خوبصورت ہرا زیتون کا درخت' رکھا۔لیکن ایک تیز آندھی کی گر ج کے ساتھ خداوند اس درخت میں آ گ لگا دے گا اور اس کی شاخیں جل کر راکھ ہو جائیں گی۔
17 کیوں کہ خداوند قادر مطلق نے تمہیں لگایا۔ تم پر مصیبت کا حکم کیا۔اس بدی کے سبب سے جو اسرائیل کے گھرانے اور یہوداہ کے گھرانے نے اپنے حق میں کی کہ بعل کیلئے بخور جلا کر مجھے غضبناک کیا۔”
My point of view about above verses
God said obey my commandments and i will give you land flowing with milk and honey - you need to obey me
God said if you will not obey me, i will bring on you all the curses of the covenant made with you
God said you are burning incense and worshipping other gods so i will bring a disaster on you - which you can't escape
God said to Jermiah do not pray for such wicked people as when they call in their distress - I will not listen
God said I will burn Judah and Israel as they burn incense and worship to idols like Baal
May God give us wisdom to understand Him through His Word as He speaks with us through this word and prophets - and apply it in our lives to have a blissful life on earth
