17 “The sin of Judah is written with an iron stylus,
    with a point of diamond it is engraved
on the tablet of their heart,
    and on the horns of their altars.
² As the remembering of their children,
    so is the remembering of their altars
and their poles of Asherah worship
    beside the leafy trees^[a] on the high hills.
³ O my mountain in the open country,
    I will give your wealth, all your treasures, for spoil,
your high places, because of your sin,
    throughout all your territories.
