And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

Son of man, set thy face towards the mountains of Yisra᾽el, and prophesy against them,

and say, You mountains of Yisra᾽el, hear the word of the Lord God; Thus says the Lord God to the mountains, and to the hills, to the ravines, and to the valleys; Behold, I, even I, will bring a sword upon you, and I will destroy your high places.

And your altars shall be desolate, and your sun images shall be broken: and I will cast down your slain men before your idols.

And I will lay the dead carcasses of the children of Yisra᾽el before their idols; and I will scatter your bones round about your altars.

In all your dwelling places the cities shall be laid waste, and the high places shall be desolate; that your altars may be laid waste and made desolate, and your idols may be broken and cease, and your sun images may be cut down, and your works may be wiped out.

And the slain shall fall in the midst of you, and you shall know that I am the Lord.

Yet will I leave a remnant, that you may have some that shall escape the sword among the nations, when you shall be scattered through the countries.

And your fugitives shall remember me among the nations whither they shall be carried captives, when I have broken their wanton heart, which has departed from me, and their eyes, which go astray after their idols: and they shall loathe themselves for the evils which they have committed in all their abominations.

And they shall know that I am the Lord, and that not in vain did I say that I would do this evil to them.

Thus says the Lord God; Smite with thy hand, and stamp with thy foot, and say, Alas for all the evil abominations of the house of Yisra᾽el! for they shall fall by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence.

He that is far off shall die of the pestilence; and he that is near shall fall by the sword; and he that remains and is besieged shall die by the famine: thus will I spend my fury upon them.

Then shall you know that I am the Lord, when their slain men shall be among their idols round about their altars, upon every high hill, in all the tops of the mountains, and under every green tree, and under every thick oak, the place where they did offer sweet savour to all their idols.

So will I stretch out my hand upon them, and make the land desolate and waste, from the wilderness to Divla, in all their habitations: and they shall know that I am the Lord.
