5 I will wipe out those who bow down on their roofs to worship all of the stars. I will destroy those who take oaths not only in my name but also in the name of Molech.
6 I will cut off those who stop following me. They no longer look to me or ask me for advice.
7 Be silent in front of me. I am the Lord and King. The day of the Lord is near. I have prepared a sacrifice. I have set apart for myself the people I invited.
8 When my sacrifice is ready to be offered, I will punish the princes and the king's sons. I will also judge all those who follow the practices of other nations.
9 At that time I will punish all those who worship other gods. They fill the temples of their gods with lies and other harmful things.
10 "At that time people at the Fish Gate in Jerusalem will cry out," announces the Lord. "So will those at the New Quarter. The buildings on the hills will come crashing down with a loud noise.
11 Cry out, you who live in the market places. All of your merchants will be wiped out. Those who trade in silver will be destroyed.
