Jeremiah 11
This section covers the Covenant which is broken (11.1-17) and the Plot against Jeremiah (v. 18-21)

Because of the people's violation of the covenant, they would be punished by the Babylonians, they would be exiled to Babylon. This section probably belong to the period after King Josiah's reformation (2 Kings 23), when the people went back to restoring and worshiping idols. Because of Jeremiah's rebuke, the people decided to kill him. Jeremiah did not give up on preaching to the people, even though he complained!

Verses to meditate on:
20 But, O LORD Almighty, you who judge righteously
and test the heart and mind,
let me see your vengeance upon them,
for to you I have committed my cause.

Jeremiah did not seek revenge on the people who tried to kill him, rather he trusted God to take care of the situation.
