King James Version
And the word of the LORD came to
me, saying,
And the word of the LORD came unto
me, saying,
“
Son of man, set your
face against
the mountains of Israel and prophesy against them .
Son of man, set thy
face toward
the mountains of Israel ,
and prophesy against them ,
You
are
to
say :
‘O
mountains of Israel, hear the word of the Lord GOD !
This
is
what
the Lord GOD says
to the mountains and hills, to the ravines
and valleys :
I am
about
to
bring a sword against
you, and I will destroy your high places.
And
say ,
Ye
mountains of Israel, hear the word of the Lord GOD ;
Thus
saith
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 upon
you, and I will destroy your high places.
Your altars will
be demolished
and your incense
altars
will
be smashed;
and I will cast down your slain before your idols.
And
your altars shall
be desolate,
and your images
shall
be broken:
and I will cast down your slain men
before your idols.
I will lay the corpses
of the Israelites
before their idols and scatter your bones around
your altars.
And
I will lay the dead
carcases
of the children
of
Israel
before their idols ;
and I
will
scatter your bones round
about
your altars.
Wherever
you
live,
the cities will
be laid waste and the high places will
be demolished,
so
that your altars will
be laid waste and desecrated
, your idols smashed
and obliterated
, your incense
altars
cut down, and your works blotted
out
.
In
all
your
dwellingplaces
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
.
The slain will
fall among
you, and you
will
know that I am the LORD.
And
the slain shall
fall in
the
midst
of
you, and ye
shall
know that I am the LORD.
Yet I
will leave a remnant, for
some of
you
will
escape the sword when
you
are
scattered
among the nations and
throughout
the lands
.
Yet will I
leave a remnant, that
ye
may
have
some that
shall
escape the sword among the nations ,
when
ye
shall
be
scattered
through
the countries
.
Then
in
the nations to
which
they have
been
carried captive
, your
survivors
will
remember
Me—how
I have
been
grieved
by
their adulterous
hearts
that
turned
away
from Me, and by
their eyes that
lusted
after idols .
So
they will
loathe
themselves for the evil
they have done
and
for
all their abominations.
And
they
that
escape
of
you
shall
remember
me
among
the nations whither
they shall
be
carried captives
, because
I am
broken
with
their whorish
heart,
which
hath
departed
from me, and with
their eyes ,
which
go
a
whoring
after their
idols :
and
they shall
lothe
themselves for the evils
which
they have committed
in
all their abominations.
And they will
know that I am the LORD ;
I did
not declare
in vain that I would bring
this calamity
upon
them.
And they shall
know that I am the LORD ,
and
that
I have
not said
in vain that I would do
this evil
unto
them.
This
is
what
the Lord GOD says:
Clap
your
hands
, stomp
your
feet
, and cry
out
“
Alas !”
because
of
all the wicked
abominations of the house of Israel ,
who
will
fall by sword and
famine and plague
.
Thus
saith
the Lord GOD ;
Smite
with
thine
hand
, and
stamp
with
thy
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
.
He who
is far off will
die by
the plague,
he who
is near will
fall by the sword ,
and he who
remains
will
die by famine .
So
I
will vent
My fury upon them.
He that
is far off shall
die of
the pestilence;
and
he that
is near shall
fall by the sword ;
and he that
remaineth
and
is
besieged
shall
die by the
famine :
thus
will I
accomplish
my fury upon them.
Then you
will
know that I am the LORD, when their slain lie
among their idols around
their altars, on
every high hill, on
all the mountaintops
, and under every green tree and leafy
oak —
the places
where they offered
fragrant
incense
to all their idols.
Then shall
ye
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.
I
will stretch out My hand against
them, and wherever
they
live
I
will
make the land a
desolate waste
, from
the wilderness to
Diblah.
Then
they will
know that I am the LORD. ’”
So
will I
stretch out my hand upon
them, and make the land desolate, yea,
more
desolate
than
the wilderness toward
Diblath,
in
all
their
habitations:
and
they shall
know that I am the LORD.
