6Ezekiel 6

1And the word of the LORD came to me, saying,Select Ezekiel 6:1

2Son of man, set your face toward the mountains of Israel, and prophesy against them,Select Ezekiel 6:2

3And say, You mountains of Israel, hear the word of the Lord GOD; Thus says the Lord GOD to the mountains, and to the hills, to the rivers, and to the valleys; Behold, I, even I, will bring a sword on you, and I will destroy your high places.Select Ezekiel 6:3

4And your altars shall be desolate, and your images shall be broken: and I will cast down your slain men before your idols.Select Ezekiel 6:4

5And I will lay the dead carcasses of the children of Israel before their idols; and I will scatter your bones round about your altars.Select Ezekiel 6:5

6In 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 images may be cut down, and your works may be abolished.Select Ezekiel 6:6

7And the slain shall fall in the middle of you, and you shall know that I am the LORD. ¶Select Ezekiel 6:7

8Yet 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.Select Ezekiel 6:8

9And they that escape of you shall remember me among the nations where they shall be carried captives, because I am broken with their whorish heart, which has departed from me, and with their eyes, which go a whoring after their idols: and they shall loathe themselves for the evils which they have committed in all their abominations.Select Ezekiel 6:9

10And they shall know that I am the LORD, and that I have not said in vain that I would do this evil to them. ¶Select Ezekiel 6:10

11Thus says the Lord GOD; Smite with your hand, and stamp with your foot, and say, Alas for all the evil abominations of the house of Israel! for they shall fall by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence.Select Ezekiel 6:11

12He 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 accomplish my fury on them.Select Ezekiel 6:12

13Then shall you know that I am the LORD, when their slain men shall be among their idols round about their altars, on 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 smell to all their idols.Select Ezekiel 6:13

14So will I stretch out my hand on them, and make the land desolate, yes, more desolate than the wilderness toward Diblath, in all their habitations: and they shall know that I am the LORD.Select Ezekiel 6:14
