14 And Yahweh has commanded concerning [a]you:
[b]There will (A)no longer be seed from your name.
From the house of your gods,
I will cut off (B)graven image and molten image.
I will prepare your (C)grave,
For you are contemptible.”

15 [c]Behold, (D)on the mountains the feet of him who proclaims good news,
Who [d]announces peace!
(E)Celebrate your feasts, O Judah;
Pay your vows.
For (F)never again will the [e]vile one pass through you;
He is (G)cut off completely.
