And against all the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

And against all the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

4“I will stretch out My hand against Judah

and against all who dwell in Jerusalem.

the names of the idolatrous and pagan priests —

4“I will reach out my powerful hand against Judah.

I will punish all those who live in Jerusalem.

I will destroy from this place

what is left of Baal worship.

The priests who serve other gods

will be removed.
