“So I will (A)stretch out My hand against Judah
And against all the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
And I will (B)eliminate the remnant of Baal from this place,
And the names of the (C)idolatrous priests along with the other priests.
And those who bow down on the (D)housetops to the heavenly [a]lights,
And those who bow down and (E)swear to the Lord, but also swear by [b](F)Milcom,
And those who have (G)turned back from following the Lord,
And those who have (H)not sought the Lord nor inquired of Him.”
