Ezekiel 6:11-14
English Standard Version
11 Thus says the Lord God: (A)“Clap your hands (B)and stamp your foot and say, Alas, because of all the evil abominations of the house of Israel, (C)for they shall fall by the sword, by famine, and by pestilence. 12 (D)He who is far off shall die of pestilence, and he who is near shall fall by the sword, and he who is left and is preserved shall die of famine. (E)Thus I will spend my fury upon them. 13 And you shall know that I am the Lord, (F)when their slain lie among their idols around their altars, (G)on every high hill, (H)on all the mountaintops, (I)under every green tree, and under (J)every leafy oak, wherever (K)they offered pleasing aroma to all their idols. 14 And (L)I will stretch out my hand against them and (M)make the land desolate and waste, (N)in all their dwelling places, from the wilderness to (O)Riblah.[a] Then (P)they will know that I am the Lord.”

Ezekiel 6:11-14
Common English Bible
11 The Lord God proclaims: Clap your hands, stamp your feet, and cry “Horror” over all the detestable practices of the house of Israel. They will fall by the sword, famine, and plague. 12 Whoever is far off will die of plague, whoever is nearby will fall to the sword, and whoever finds refuge will die of famine. I’ll satisfy my wrath against them! 13 They will know that I am the Lord when their slain appear among their idols and around their altars, wherever they offered up pleasing aromas for all their idols, on every high hill and mountaintop, and under every lofty tree and leafy oak. 14 Wherever they live, I will direct my power against them. I will turn the land into a greater wasteland than the Riblah desert. Then they will know that I am the Lord.
