6:1 And the word of Yehovah came to me,
saying,
6:2 Son of man, set thy face against the mountains of Israel, and prophesy
against them;
6:3 and thou shalt say, Ye mountains of Israel, hear the word of Yehovah;
thus saith Yehovah to the mountains, and to the hills, and to the valleys,
and to the forests; Behold, I bring a sword upon you, and your high places
shall be utterly destroyed.
6:4 And your altars shall be broken to pieces, and your consecrated plats;
and I will cast down your slain [men] before your idols.
6:5 And I will scatter your bones round about your altars,
6:6 and in all your habitations: the cities shall be made desolate, and the
high places utterly laid waste; that your altars may be destroyed, and your
idols be broken to pieces, and your consecrated plats be abolished.
6:7 And slain [men] shall fall in the midst of you, and ye shall know that I
am Yehovah.
6:8 When there are [some] of you escaping from the sword among the Gentiles,
and when ye are scattered in the countries;
6:9 then they of you that escape among the nations whither they were carried
captive shall remember me; (I have sworn [an oath] against their heart that
goes a-whoring from me, and their eyes that go a-whoring after their
practices;) and they shall mourn over themselves for all their abominations.
6:10 And they shall know that I Yehovah have spoken.
6:11 Thus saith Yehovah; Clap with [thy] hand, and stamp with [thy] foot
and say, Aha, aha! for all the abominations of the house of Israel: they
shall fall by the sword, and by pestilence, and by famine.
6:12 He that is near shall fall by the sword; and he that is far off shall
die by the pestilence; and he that is in the siege shall be consumed with
famine: and I will accomplish mine anger upon them.
6:13 Then ye shall know that I am Yehovah, when your slain are in the midst
of your idols round about your altars, on every high hill, and under [every]
shady tree, where they offered a sweet savour to all their idols.
6:14 And I will stretch out my hand against them, and I will make the land
desolate and ruined from the wilderness of Deblatha, in all their
habitations: [and] ye shall know that I am Yehovah. |
6:1 And the word of Yehovah came unto me,
saying,
6:2 Son of man, set thy face toward the mountains of Israel, and prophesy
against them,
6:3 And say, Ye mountains of Israel, hear the word of Yehovah GOD; Thus
saith Yehovah 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.
6:4 And your altars shall be desolate, and your images shall be broken: and
I will cast down your slain men before your idols.
6:5 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.
6:6 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.
6:7 And the slain shall fall in the midst of you, and ye shall know that I
am Yehovah.
6:8 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.
6:9 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.
6:10 And they shall know that I am Yehovah, and that I have not said in
vain that I would do this evil unto them.
6:11 Thus saith Yehovah 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.
6:12 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.
6:13 Then shall ye know that I am Yehovah, 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.
6:14 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 Yehovah. |
