Ezekiel 6:11-14

Expanded Bible

¹¹ “‘This is what the Lord God says: Clap your hands, stamp your feet, and ·groan [^Lsay, “Ah!”] because of all the ·hateful, evil things [evil and detestable practices] the ·people [^Lhouse] of Israel have done. They will ·die by war [^Lfall by the sword], ·hunger [famine], and ·disease [plague; pestilence; Lev. 26:25–26]. ¹² The person who is far away will die by ·disease [plague; pestilence]. The one who is nearby will ·die in war [fall by the sword]. The person who ·is still alive [^Lremains and is spared] and has escaped these will die from ·hunger [famine]. So I will ·carry out [spend; exhaust] my ·anger [wrath; fury] on them. ¹³ Their people will lie dead among their idols around the altars, on every high hill, on all the mountain tops, and under every green tree and leafy oak—all the places where they offered ·sweet-smelling [fragrant; or pleasing] incense to their idols. Then you will know that I am the Lord. ¹⁴ I will ·use my power [^Lstretch out my hand] against them to make the land ·empty [desolate] and wasted from the ·desert [wilderness] to ·Diblah,^[a] wherever they live. Then they will know that I am the Lord.’”
