“You claim to speak to us on behalf of YAHWEH, but we refuse to listen to you whatsoever! We will keep our vows to continue offering incense to our goddess, the Queen of Heaven, and pouring out drink offerings in her honor as we used to do. We will worship her in the towns of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem just as we, our ancestors, kings, and officers did in the past. We had plenty of food then, we prospered, and we suffered no disasters.

But since we ceased offering incense to the Queen of Heaven and pouring out drink offerings to her, we have been destitute, and our people have died either by sword or by starvation.

This disaster has plainly overtaken you because you sinned and offered incense to other gods, refusing to listen to the voice of YAHWEH or follow his law, his teachings, and his commandments.”
