6 And the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying, ² Son of man, set thy face toward the mountains of Israel, and prophesy ^[a]unto them, ³ and say, Ye mountains of Israel, hear the word of the Lord Jehovah: Thus saith the Lord Jehovah to the mountains and to the hills, to the ^[b]watercourses and to the valleys: Behold, I, even I, will bring a sword upon you, and I will destroy your high places. ⁴ And your altars shall become desolate, and your sun-images shall be broken; and I will cast down your slain men before your idols. ⁵ And I will lay the dead bodies of the children of Israel before their idols; and I will scatter your bones round about your altars. ⁶ In all your dwelling-places the cities shall be laid waste, and the high places shall be desolate; that your altars may be laid waste and ^[c]made desolate, and your idols may be broken and cease, and your sun-images may be hewn down, and your works may be ^[d]abolished. ⁷ And the slain shall fall in the midst of you, and ye shall know that I am Jehovah.
