24 Therefore says the Lord Adonai-Tzva’ot, the Mighty One of Israel: “Oy ! I will get relief from My foes and avenge Myself on My enemies.
25 Then I will turn My hand on you, purge away your dross, and remove all your alloy.
26 I will restore your judges as at first, your counselors as at the start. Afterward you will be called City of Righteousness, Faithful City.
27 Zion will be redeemed with justice, her repentant with righteousness.”
28 But there will be a crushing of transgressors and sinners together. Forsaking Adonai, they will be consumed.
29 For they will be ashamed of the sacred oaks that you desired, and embarrassed because of the gardens that you have chosen.
30 For you will be like an oak of withering leaf, like a garden that has no water.
