3I will sweep away man and animal. I will sweep away the birds of the sky, the fish of the sea, and the heaps of rubble with the wicked. I will cut off man from the surface of the earth, says Yahweh.
4I will stretch out my hand against Judah, and against all the inhabitants of Jerusalem. I will cut off the remnant of Baal from this place: the name of the idolatrous and pagan priests,
5those who worship the host of the sky on the housetops, those who worship and swear by Yahweh and also swear by Malcam,
6those who have turned back from following Yahweh, and those who haven`t sought Yahweh nor inquired after him.
7Be silent at the presence of the Lord Yahweh, for the day of Yahweh is at hand. For Yahweh has prepared a sacrifice. He has consecrated his guests.
8It will happen in the day of Yahweh`s sacrifice, that I will punish the princes, the king`s sons, and all those who as are clothed with foreign clothing.
9In that day, I will punish all those who leap over the threshold, who fill their master`s house with violence and deceit.
