10 “And it will be in that day,” declares Yahweh,
(A)That I will cut off your (B)horses from among you
And destroy your chariots.
11 And I will cut off the (C)cities of your land
And pull down all your (D)fortifications.
12 And I will cut off (E)sorceries from your hand,
And you will have soothsaying no more.
13 (F)And I will cut off your graven images
And your sacred pillars from among you
So that you will no longer worship
The work of your hands.
14 And I will uproot your [a](G)Asherim from among you
And [b]eradicate your cities.
15 And I will (H)execute vengeance in anger and wrath
On the nations which have not [c](I)listened.”
