I will destroy her ruler
    and kill all her officials with him,’
says the Lord.

This is what the Lord says:

‘For three sins of Judah,
    even for four, I will not relent.
Because they have rejected the law of the Lord
    and have not kept his decrees,
because they have been led astray by false gods,[a]
    the gods[b] their ancestors followed,
I will send fire on Judah
    that will consume the fortresses of Jerusalem.’
