(A)I will cut off the ruler from its midst,
    and will kill (B)all its princes[a] with him,”
says the Lord.

Judgment on Judah

Thus says the Lord:

(C)“For three transgressions of Judah,
    and for four, I will not revoke the punishment,
because (D)they have rejected the law of the Lord,
    and have not kept his statutes,
but (E)their lies have led them astray,
    those after which their fathers walked.
So (F)I will send a fire upon Judah,
    and it shall devour the strongholds of Jerusalem.”
