17 Yehudah’s sin is written with an iron stylus that has a diamond point.

It’s engraved on the tablet which is their hearts, and on the projecting corners of your altars.

2 Even their children remember their altars and their Asherah poles

that were beside the luxuriant trees and on the high hills—

3 even on my mountain in the countryside.

I’ll give your wealth and all your treasures to be plundered by others

because of your sin on your hilltop shrines throughout all your territories.

4 You’ll have to let go the inheritance that I gave you.

I’ll make your serve your enemies in a land that you’ve never been to,

because you’ve ignited a fire in my anger which will burn forever.
