* And I will stretch out my hand upon Judah , and upon all the inhabitants of Jerusalem . And I will cut off the remnant of Baal from this place , [and ] the name of the Chemarim with the priests , * and those who worship the host of heaven upon the housetops , and those who worship , who swear to LORD and swear by Malcam , * and those who are turned back from following LORD , and those who have not sought LORD , nor inquired after him . * Hold thy peace at the presence of lord LORD , for the day of LORD is at hand . For LORD has prepared a sacrifice . He has consecrated his guests . * And it shall come to pass in the day of LORD 's sacrifice , that I will punish the rulers , and the king 's sons , and all such as are clothed with foreign apparel . * And in that day I will punish all those who leap over the threshold , who fill their master 's house with violence and deceit . * And in that day , says LORD , there shall be the noise of a cry from the fish gate , and a wailing from the second quarter , and a great crashing from the hills . * Wail , ye inhabitants of Maktesh , for all the people of Canaan are undone . All those who were laden with silver are cut off . * And it shall come to pass at that time , that I will search Jerusalem with lamps , and I will punish the men who are settled on their lees , who say in their heart , LORD will not do good , nor will he do evil . * And their wealth shall become a spoil , and their houses a desolation . Yea , they shall build houses , but shall not inhabit them , and they shall plant vineyards , but shall not drink the wine of it .
