In Jeremiah 11 God speaks to his people through the prophet Jeremiah reminding them of the covenant they have broken: "Cursed is the man who does not obey the terms of this covenant... obey me!... but they didn't listen or pay attention... they have returned to the sins of their forefathers... so I will bring them a disaster they can't escape... for you have as many gods as you have towns!... the Lord Almighty has therefore decreed disaster for you". Then God revealed to Jeremiah a plot to assassinate him, so he prayed for God's vengeance upon them. So God answered saying the young men would die by the sword and their children would die by famine so that there would be no survivors of these schemers and would-be assassins!
