In chapter 12 [[Jeremiah]] pleads with [[God]] about His judgments. His pleading is in a humble and submissive manner, which [[God]] accepts by making him feel the evil of the people more deeply. At the same time, [[God]] sustains the [[prophet]]'s [[faith]] by the personal interest He shows in him. [[God]] helps him understand that He has not forsaken His inheritance. The state of things was therefore no longer in doubt. [[God]] also revealed His purposes and blessings to His people, and even to the nations among whom they will be disbursed, if these nations would learn the ways of the [[Lord]].

In chapter 13 [[Jeremiah]] calls the people to repentance because of the coming [[judgment]]. Chapter 14 records Sermon 5, presented as "The Drought" and the nation's doom. In this chapter we read of the terrible calamity (verses 1-6); the empty ritualistic prayers of the nation (verses 7-9); and their rejection by the [[Lord]] (verses 10-12). The false prophets, who had no divine credentials, were to blame (verses 14-16) and finally, in the latter part of the chapter, we see [[Jeremiah]] again lamenting for the nation he loved so well.
