12 So the Lord says: “Even though they are full and many,they will be cut down, and it will pass away.Even though I have afflicted you,I will no longer afflict you, O Judah;
13 now I will break apart his yoke from over you,and I will tear apart your bonds.”
14 The Lord has given a command concerning you:“No longer will your name go forth.I will cut off the carved image and metal imagefrom the house of your gods.I will prepare your grave,for you are despised.”
15 Look, on the mountainscome the feet of him who brings good news,who proclaims peace!Make your feasts, O Judah,and complete your vows.For the wicked one will never again pass through your midst;he is completely cut down.
