* And the word of the Lord came unto me , saying , * Son of man , set thy face against the mountains of Israel , and prophesy against them , * And thou shalt say , O mountains of Israel , hear ye the word of the Lord Eternal ! Thus hath said the Lord Eternal to the mountains , and to the hills , to the brooks , and to the valleys , Behold , I , even I , will bring over you the sword , and I will destroy your high –places . * And your altars shall be made desolate , and your sun –images shall be broken : and I will cause your slain ones to fall before your idols . * And I will lay the carcasses of the children of Israel before their idols ; and I will scatter your bones round about your altars . * In all your dwelling –places the cities shall be laid in ruins , and the high –places shall be made desolate ; in order that your altars may be laid in ruins and made desolate , and your idols may be broken and annihilated , and your sun –images may be cut down , and your works may be blotted out . * And the slain shall fall in the midst of you : and ye shall know that I am the Lord . * Yet will I leave ; that ye shall have some that escape the sword among the nations , when ye shall be scattered in the countries . * And those of you that escape shall remember me among the nations among whom they shall have been carried captive , when I shall have broken their licentious heart , which had departed from me , even with their eyes , which were gone astray after their idols : and they shall loathe themselves on account of the evil deeds which they have committed with all their abominations . * And they shall know that I am the Lord : not for naught have I spoken that I would do unto them this evil . * Thus hath said the Lord Eternal , Strike thy hands together , and stamp with thy foot , and say , Alas for all the dreadful abominations of the house of Israel ! who will have to fall by the sword , by the famine , and by the pestilence . * He that is afar 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 let out all my fury on them . * And ye shall know that I am the Lord , when their slain ones shall lie in the midst of their idols round about their altars , on every high hill , upon all the tops of the mountains , and under every green tree , and under every thick –branched oak ,––places where they presented sweet savor to all their idols . * And I will stretch out my hand over them , and I will render the land desolate and waste , more than the wilderness toward Diblath , in all their habitations : and they shall know that I am the Lord .
