Ezekiel 6:3-8

3and say, ‘Mountains of Israel, listen to the word of the Lord 1God! This is what the Lord 2God says to the mountains, the hills, the ravines, and the valleys: “Behold, I Myself am going to bring a sword against you, and 3I will destroy your high places. 4So your 4altars 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 5bones around your altars. 66Everywhere you live, 7cities will be in ruins and the high places will be deserted, so that your altars will be in ruins and 8deserted, your 9idols 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 10remnant, in that you will have those who 11escaped the sword among the nations when you are scattered among the countries.
