    and it will devour the fortresses of Jerusalem.

Judgment Against Israel

Thus says the Lord:

For three transgressions of Israel,
    and for four, I will not revoke the punishment,
because they sell the righteous for silver,
    and the poor for a pair of sandals.

    and push the oppressed out of the way.

    profaning My holy name.

    and deny justice to the oppressed.

    and so profane my holy name.(F)
