24 I am the Lord All-Powerful,the mighty ruler of Israel,and I make you a promise:You are now my enemy,and I will show my angerby taking revenge on you.
25 I will punish you terriblyand burn away everythingthat makes you unfitto worship me.
26 Jerusalem, I will choosejudges and advisorslike those you had before.Your new name will be“Justice and Faithfulness.”
27 Jerusalem, you will be savedby showing justice;Zion's people who turn to mewill be savedby doing right.
28 But those rebellious sinnerswho turn against me, the Lord,will all disappear.
29 You will be made ashamedof those groves of treeswhere you worshiped idols.
30 You will be like a grove of treesdying in a drought.
