Against all its walls all around,
And against all the cities of Judah.

“They shall come and beach one set his throne
At the entrance of the gates of Jerusalem,
Against all its walls all around,
And against all the cities of Judah.
16 I will utter My judgments
Against them concerning all their wickedness,
Because athey have forsaken Me,
Burned bincense to other gods,
And worshiped the works of their own chands.
Against them concerning all their wickedness,
Because athey have forsaken Me,
Burned bincense to other gods,
And worshiped the works of their own chands.
