Yahweh will punish Judah

4 Yahweh also said this:

“I will also punish the people of Judah because of the many sins that they have committed;

I will not change my mind about punishing them,

because they have rejected what I taught them

and they have not obeyed my commands.

They have been deceived and persuaded to worship false gods,

the same gods that their ancestors worshiped.

5 So I will cause a fire to completely burn everything in Judah, including the fortresses in Jerusalem.”
