“The Lord God hath sworn by himself, saith the Lord the God of hosts, I abhor the excellency of Jacob, and hate his palaces: therefore will I deliver up the city with all that is therein.”
The oath that the LORD abhors the pride of Jacob indicates God's particular rejection of Israel's arrogance. The promise to deliver up the city and all that fills it indicates comprehensive destruction.
