and say, (A)You mountains of Israel, hear the word of the Lord God! Thus says the Lord God to (B)the mountains and (C)the hills, to (D)the ravines and the valleys: Behold, I, even I, will bring a sword upon you, (E)and I will destroy your high places. (F)Your altars shall become desolate, and your (G)incense altars shall be broken, and I will cast down your slain before your idols. (H)And I will lay the dead bodies of the people of Israel before their idols, (I)and I will scatter your bones around your altars. Wherever you dwell, (J)the cities shall be waste and (K)the high places ruined, so that your altars will be waste and ruined,[a] your idols broken and destroyed, your (L)incense altars cut down, and your works wiped out. And the slain shall fall in your midst, and you shall know that I am the Lord.
