Jeremiah 11:15 MSG

[15] “What business do the ones I love have figuring out how to get off the hook? And right in the house of worship! Do you think making promises and devising pious programs will save you from doom? Do you think you can get out of this by becoming more religious? A mighty oak tree, majestic and glorious—that’s how I once described you. But it will only take a clap of thunder and a bolt of lightning to leave you a shattered wreck.
