Jeremiah 11:16
Thomson 1808
The Lord called thy name The beautiful shady olive tree. At the sound of lopping it, a fire was kindled against it. Great is the affliction coming upon thee. Its branches are destroyed.
Brenton 1851
The Lord called thy name a fair olive tree, of a goodly shade in appearance, at the noise of its being lopped, fire was kindled against it; great is the affliction coming upon thee: her branches are become good for nothing.
