4 I will stretch out my handg against Judah

and against all the residents of Jerusalem.

I will cut off every vestige of Baalh

from this place,

the names of the pagan priestsi

along with the priests;

5 those who bow in worship on the rooftopsj

to the stars in the sky;

those who bow and pledge loyalty to the Lordk

but also pledge loyalty to Milcom;B,l

6 and those who turn back from following the Lord,

who do not seek the Lord or inquire of him.

7 Be silent in the presence of the Lord God,m

for the day of the Lord is near.n

Indeed, the Lord has prepared a sacrifice;o

he has consecrated his guests.p
