Verse 14
The Lord instructed Jeremiah again (cf. Jeremiah 7:16) not to pray that He would withhold judgment from his people. Their sin was so great that the Lord would not defer judgment, even though the prophet or his people cried out to Him for mercy (cf. Jeremiah 11:11). Genuine repentance was the only thing that would affect His punishment.
