“I will destroy the people and animals.
    I will destroy the birds in the air
    and the fish of the sea.
I will ruin the evil people.
    I will remove all the people from the earth,” says the Lord.

The Future of Judah

“I will punish Judah
    and all the people living in Jerusalem.
I will remove from this place
    all signs of Baal and his priests.
I will destroy those who worship
    the stars from the roofs.[a]
I will destroy those who worship and make promises
    by both the Lord and the god Molech.
