The Sin Of Judah

1 The sin of Judah is written with a pen of iron, and with the point of a diamond: it is engraved upon the tablet of their heart, and upon the horns of your altars; 2  While their children remember their altars and their idols poles by the green trees upon the high hills. 3 O my mountain in the field, I will give your wealth and all your treasures as plunder, and your high places for sin, throughout all your borders.
