Therefore pray not thou for this people, neither lift up a cry or prayer for them: for I will not hear them in the time that they cry unto me for their trouble.

The verse 14 is found in chapter 11 of Jeremiah. Judah and Israel have formed a conspiracy by returning to the idols of their ancestors. When judgment comes, their numerous gods will not be able to save them. The comparison with a green and beautiful olive tree shows that Israel’s destruction does not result from divine inability, but from its own unfaithfulness.

So bitte du nun nicht für dieses Volk und tue kein Flehen noch Gebet für sie; denn ich will sie nicht hören, wenn sie zu mir schreien in ihrer Not.
Tú pues, no ores por este pueblo, ni levantes por ellos clamor ni oración; porque yo no oiré el día que en su aflicción a mí clamaren.
Y tú, no ores por este pueblo ni eleves por ellos clamor ni oración, porque no escucharé cuando clamen a mí por su calamidad.
Et toi, n'intercède pas en faveur de ce peuple, N'élève pour eux ni supplications ni prières; Car je ne les écouterai pas, Quand ils m'invoqueront à cause de leur malheur.
Tu adunque non pregar per questo popolo, e non prendere a gridare, nè a fare orazion per loro; perciocchè io non li esaudirò, quando grideranno a me per la loro avversità.
Tu, pois, não ores por este povo, nem levantes por ele clamor nem oração; porque não os ouvirei no tempo em que eles clamarem a mim, por causa do seu mal.
「所以你不要為這百姓祈禱,也不要為他們呼求禱告,因為他們遭難向我哀求的時候,我必不應允。
