So the Lord All-Powerful says,
“A worker heats metal in a fire to test it and see if it is pure.
    I will test the people of Judah like that.
I have no other choice.
    My people have sinned.
The people of Judah have tongues as sharp as arrows.
    Their mouths speak lies.
They all speak kindly to their neighbors,
    but they are secretly planning ways to attack them.
Should I punish the people of Judah for doing these things?”
    This message is from the Lord.
“You know I should punish a nation such as this.
    I should give it the punishment it deserves.”
