because they have rejected the LORD’s law,
and have not kept his statutes,
and their lies have led them astray,
after which their fathers walked;

The LORD says:
“For three transgressions of Moab, yes, for four,
I will not turn away its punishment,
because he burned the bones of the king of Edom into lime;
but I will send a fire on Moab,
and it will devour the palaces of Kerioth;
and Moab will die with tumult, with shouting, and with the sound of the trumpet;
and I will cut off the judge from among them,
and will kill all its princes with him,”
says the LORD.

and have not kept his statutes,
and their lies have led them astray,
after which their fathers walked;
but I will send a fire on Judah,
and it will devour the palaces of Jerusalem.”
The LORD says:
“For three transgressions of Israel, yes, for four,
I will not turn away its punishment,

and deny justice to the oppressed.
