11 The Lord told me to say to the royal court of Judah, “Listen to what the Lord says,
12 O royal family descended from David. The Lord says:‘See to it that people each day are judged fairly.Deliver those who have been robbed from those who oppress them.Otherwise, my wrath will blaze out against you.It will burn like a fire that cannot be put outbecause of the evil that you have done.
13 Listen, you who sit enthroned above the valley on a rocky plateau.I am opposed to you,’ says the Lord. ‘You boast, “No one can swoop down on us.No one can penetrate into our places of refuge.”
14 But I will punish you as your deeds deserve,’says the Lord.‘I will set fire to your palace;it will burn up everything around it.’”
