“I will give as plunder
Your wealth,
With your treasures,
Without a price,
Throughout all your territory.
For all your sins,
I will make you
Serve your enemies
In a land that you do not know.
In my anger
A fire is kindled
That shall burn forever.”
Yahweh will not relent. He was going to freely give away the wealth and treasure of the whole country as plunder. Due to their sins, they would serve their former enemies in a foreign land. Yahweh’s anger has been kindled and will burn forever. There is no turning back.
