Exegesis
The verse begins with khatat {חַטַּאת | ḥaṭ-ṭāʾt} ‘sin’ as the subject, immediately followed by Yehudah {יְהוּדָה | yə-hū-ḏāh}, naming the guilty party.
In context — Jeremiah 17:1
The sin of Judah is written with an iron pen and with a diamond point; it is engraved on the tablet of their heart and on the horns of your altars.
