13 They offer up sacrificial gifts to me
and eat the meat,
but the Lord does not accept their sacrifices.[a]
Soon he will remember their wrongdoing,
he will punish their sins,
and they will return to Egypt.

and Judah has built many fortified cities.
But I will send fire on their cities;
it will consume their royal citadels.
