Judgment on Judah
4
Thus says the LORD:
"For three transgressions of e Judah, and for four,
I will not turn away its punishment,
f Because they have despised the law of the LORD,
And have not kept His commandments.
g Their lies lead them astray,
Lies h which their fathers followed.
5
i But I will send a fire upon Judah,
And it shall devour the palaces of Jerusalem."
