Punishment of Judah and Israel

Thus says Yahweh,

“For three transgressions of (A)Judah and for four
I will not turn back its punishment
Because they (B)rejected the law of Yahweh
And have not kept His statutes;
Their [a](C)falsehood also has led them astray,
That which their (D)fathers walked after.
So I will (E)send fire upon Judah,
And it will consume the citadels of Jerusalem.”

Thus says Yahweh,

“For three transgressions of (F)Israel and for four
I will not turn back its punishment
Because they (G)sell the righteous for money
And the needy for a pair of sandals.
