1599 Geneva Bible
29 1 A prophecy against Jerusalem. 13 The vengeance of God on them that follow the traditions of men.
1 Ah [a]altar, altar of the city that David dwelt in: add year unto year: [b]let them kill lambs.
2 But I will bring the altar into distress, and there shall be heaviness and sorrow, and it shall be unto me like [c]an altar.
