and will slay all the princes thereof with him,
saith the Lord.

Thus saith the Lord;
For three transgressions of Judah,
and for four,
I will not turn away the punishment thereof;
because they have despised the law of the Lord,
and have not kept his commandments,
and their lies caused them to err,

and it shall devour the palaces of Jerusalem.

I will destroy her ruler(A)
    and kill all her officials with him,”(B)

This is what the Lord says:

“For three sins of Judah,(D)
    even for four, I will not relent.
Because they have rejected the law(E) of the Lord
    and have not kept his decrees,(F)
because they have been led astray(G) by false gods,[a](H)
    the gods[b] their ancestors followed,(I)

    that will consume the fortresses(K) of Jerusalem.(L)
