Ezekiel 6:2-10

2“Son of man, set your face toward the 1mountains of Israel, and prophesy against them 3and say, ‘Mountains of Israel, listen to the word of the Lord 2God! This is what the Lord 3God says to the mountains, the hills, the ravines, and the valleys: “Behold, I Myself am going to bring a sword against you, and 4I will destroy your high places. 4So your 5altars will become deserted and your incense altars will be smashed; and I will make your slain fall in front of your idols. 5I will also lay the dead bodies of the sons of Israel in front of their idols; and I will scatter your 6bones around your altars. 67Everywhere you live, 8cities will be in ruins and the high places will be deserted, so that your altars will be in ruins and 9deserted, your 10idols will be broken and brought to an end, your incense altars will be cut down, and your works wiped out. 7The slain will fall among you, and you will know that I am the Lord.

8“However, I will leave a 11remnant, in that you will have those who 12escaped the sword among the nations when you are scattered among the countries. 9Then those of you who escape will 13remember Me among the nations to which they will be taken captive, how I have 1415been hurt by their adulterous hearts which turned away from Me, and by their eyes which committed infidelity with their idols; and they will 16loathe themselves in their own sight for the evils which they have committed, for all their abominations. 10Then they will know that I am the Lord; I have not said in vain that I would inflict this disaster on them.”’
