Ezekiel 6

Judgment against Israel’s Mountains

6Again a message came to me from the Lord:H1697H3068H5592“Son of man, turn and face the mountains of Israel and prophesy against them.H1121H120H7760H6440H2022H3478H50123Proclaim this message from the Sovereign Lord against the mountains of Israel. This is what the Sovereign Lord says to the mountains and hills and to the ravines and valleys: I am about to bring war upon you, and I will smash your pagan shrines.H559H2022H3478H8085H1697H136H3069H559H136H3069H2022H1389H650H1516H935H2719H6H11164All your altars will be demolished, and your places of worship will be destroyed. I will kill your people in front of your idols

.H4196H8074H2553H7665H5307H2491H6440H15445I will lay your corpses in front of your idols and scatter your bones around your altars.H5414H6297H1121H3478H6440H1544H2219H6106H5439H41966Wherever you live there will be desolation, and I will destroy your pagan shrines. Your altars will be demolished, your idols will be smashed, your places of worship will be torn down, and all the religious objects you have made will be destroyed.H4186H5892H2717H1116H3456H4196H2717H816H1544H7665H7673H2553H1438H4639H42297The place will be littered with corpses, and you will know that I alone am the Lord.H2491H5307H8432H3045H30688“But I will let a few of my people escape destruction, and they will be scattered among the nations of the world.H3498H6412H2719H1471H2219H7769Then when they are exiled among the nations, they will remember me. They will recognize how hurt I am by their unfaithful hearts and lustful eyes that long for their idols. Then at last they will hate themselves for all their detestable sins.H6412H2142H1471H7617H7665H2181H3820H5493H5869H2181H310H1544H6962H6440H7451H6213H844110They will know that I alone am the Lord and that I was serious when I said I would bring this calamity on them.H3045H3068H1696H2600H6213H745111“This is what the Sovereign Lord says: Clap your hands in horror, and stamp your feet. Cry out because of all the detestable sins the people of Israel have committed. Now they are going to die from war and famine and disease.H559H136H3069H5221H3709H7554H7272H559H253H7451H8441H1004H3478H5307H2719H7458H169812Disease will strike down those who are far away in exile. War will destroy those who are nearby. And anyone who survives will be killed by famine. So at last I will spend my fury on them.H7350H4191H1698H7138H5307H2719H7604H5341H4191H7458H3615H253413They will know that I am the Lord when their dead lie scattered among their idols and altars on every hill and mountain and under every green tree and every great shade tree—the places where they offered sacrifices to their idols.H3045H3068H2491H8432H1544H5439H4196H7311H1389H7218H2022H7488H6086H5687H424H4725H5414H5207H7381H154414I will crush them and make their cities desolate from the wilderness in the south to Riblah

in the north. Then they will know that I am the Lord.”H5186H3027H5414H776H8077H4923H4057H1689H4186H3045H3068
