*
Son of man ,
they that inhabit those wastes of the land of Israel speak ,
saying ,
Abraham was one ,
and he inherited the land :
but we are many ;
the land is given us for inheritance .
*
Wherefore say unto them ,
Thus saith the Lord GOD ;
Ye eat with the blood ,
and lift up your eyes toward your idols ,
and shed blood :
and shall ye possess the land ?
*
Ye stand upon your sword ,
ye work abomination tow #
ebah #,
and ye defile every one his neighbours wife :
and shall ye possess the land ?
*
Say thou thus unto them ,
Thus saith the Lord GOD ;
As I live ,
surely they that are in the wastes shall fall by the sword ,
and him that is in the open field will I give to the beasts to be devoured ,
and they that be in the forts and in the caves shall die of the pestilence .
*
For I will lay the land most desolate ,
and the pomp of her strength shall cease ;
and the mountains of Israel shall be desolate ,
that none shall pass through .
*
Then shall they know that I am the LORD ,
when I have laid the land most desolate because of all their abominations which they have committed .
