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.”

11 Thus says the Lord God: “Clap your hands, and stamp your foot, and say, Alas! because of all the evil abominations of the house of Israel; for they shall fall by the sword, by famine, and by pestilence. 12 He that is far off shall die of pestilence; and he that is near shall fall by the sword; and he that is left and is preserved shall die of famine. Thus I will spend my fury upon them. 13 And you shall know that I am the Lord, when their slain lie among their idols round about their altars, upon every high hill, on all the mountain tops, under every green tree, and under every leafy oak, wherever they offered pleasing odor to all their idols. 14 And I will stretch out my hand against them, and make the land desolate and waste, throughout all their habitations, from the wilderness to Riblah.[a] Then they will know that I am the Lord.”
