Jeremiah 11:11 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

Evil upon them which they shall not be able to escape; a judgment from which they shall by no means be delivered, by any counsels of their own, or assistance of their friends and allies. And though they shall cry unto me, I will not hearken unto them; and though prayer to me hath been their usual course in such cases, and I have delivered them, yet I will no more hear them, though they cry unto me, Proverbs 1:28,29 Zec 7:11,13. God will not hear them crying to him in their adversity, who refuse to hear him speaking to them in their prosperity.

Jeremiah 11:11

11 Therefore thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will bring evil upon them, which they shall not be able to escape;b and though they shall cry unto me, I will not hearken unto them.
