“They are turned back to the iniquities of their forefathers, which refused to hear my words; and they went after other gods to serve them: the house of Israel and the house of Judah have broken my covenant which I made with their fathers.”
The outcome of conspiracy: 'Therefore this is what the LORD says: "I am going to bring on them a disaster they cannot escape. Although they cry out to me, I will not listen to them."' This verse announces judgment: disaster is coming that cannot be escaped. The phrase 'Although they cry out to me, I will not listen to them' indicates that even prayer will not change God's mind. Theologically, this verse indicates that the moment for repentance has passed; judgment is irreversible.
