|
|

"Son of man, set your face toward the mountains
of Israel, and prophesy against them |
| |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 6:3
|
|
and say, 'Mountains of Israel, listen to the
word of the Lord GOD! Thus says the Lord GOD to the mountains, the hills, the
ravines and the valleys: "Behold, I Myself am going to bring a sword on you, and
I will destroy your high places. |
| |
|
|
|

incense altars will be smashed; and I will make your slain fall in front of your
idols. |
| |
|
|

|
"I will also lay the dead bodies of the sons
of Israel in front of their idols; and I will scatter your bones around your altars. |
| |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 6:6
|
|
"In all your dwellings, cities will become waste
and the high places will be desolate, that your altars may become waste and desolate,
your idols may be broken and brought to an end, your incense altars may be cut
down, and your works may be blotted out. |
| |

"The slain will fall among you, and you will
know that I am the LORD. |
|
|
|

"However, I will leave a remnant, for you will
have those who escaped the sword among the nations when you are scattered among
the countries. |
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 6:9
|
|
"Then those of you who escape will remember
Me among the nations to which they will be carried captive, how I have been hurt
by their adulterous hearts which turned away from Me, and by their eyes which
played the harlot after their idols; and they will loathe themselves in their
own sight for the evils which they have committed, for all their abominations.
|
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 6:10
|
|
"Then they will know that I am the LORD; I have
not said in vain that I would inflict this disaster on them."' |

|
|
"Thus says the Lord GOD, 'Clap your hand, stamp
your foot and say, "Alas, because of all the evil abominations of the house of
Israel, which will fall by sword, famine and plague! |
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 6:12
|
|
"He who is far off will die by the plague, and
he who is near will fall by the sword, and he who remains and is besieged will
die by the famine. Thus will I spend My wrath on them. |
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 6:13
|
|
"Then you will know that I am the LORD, when
their slain are among their idols around their altars, on every high hill, on
all the tops of the mountains, under every green tree and under every leafy oak--the
places where they offered soothing aroma to all their idols. |
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 6:14
|
|
"So throughout all their habitations I will
stretch out My hand against them and make the land more desolate and waste than
the wilderness toward Diblah; thus they will know that I am the LORD."'" |
