Alternate translation: "this is what  Yahweh, the God of hosts, has declared" or "this is what I, Yahweh, the God of hosts, have declared" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-123person]])
+"this is what  Yahweh, the God of hosts, has declared" or "this is what I, Yahweh, the God of hosts, declare"

-
-# I hate his fortresses
-
-It is implied that Yahweh hates the fortresses because the people believed the fortresses would keep them safe. Alternate translation: "I hate the people of Israel because they trust in their fortresses, not in me, to protect them" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-explicit]])
+"I hate the descendants of Jacob because they have become arrogant"
