Ezekiel 6 (WEBP)

[1] Yahweh’s word came to me, saying,
[2] “Son of man, set your face toward the mountains of Israel, and prophesy to them,
[3] and say, ‘You mountains of Israel, hear the word of the Lord Yahweh! The Lord Yahweh says to the mountains and to the hills, to the watercourses and to the valleys: “Behold, I, even I, will bring a sword on you, and I will destroy your high places.
[4] Your altars will become desolate, and your incense altars will be broken. I will cast down your slain men before your idols.
[5] I will lay the dead bodies of the children of Israel before their idols. I will scatter your bones around your altars.
[6] In all your dwelling places, the cities will be laid waste and the high places will be desolate, so that your altars may be laid waste and made desolate, and your idols may be broken and cease, and your incense altars may be cut down, and your works may be abolished.
[7] The slain will fall among you, and you will know that I am Yahweh.
[8] “ ‘ “Yet I will leave a remnant, in that you will have some that escape the sword among the nations, when you are scattered through the countries.
[9] Those of you that escape will remember me among the nations where they are carried captive, how I have been broken with their lewd heart, which has departed from me, and with their eyes, which play the prostitute after their idols. Then they will loathe themselves in their own sight for the evils which they have committed in all their abominations.
[10] They will know that I am Yahweh. I have not said in vain that I would do this evil to them.” ’
[11] “The Lord Yahweh says: ‘Strike with your hand, and stamp with your foot, and say, “Alas!”, because of all the evil abominations of the house of Israel; for they will fall by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence.
[12] He who is far off will die of the pestilence. He who is near will fall by the sword. He who remains and is besieged will die by the famine. Thus I will accomplish my wrath on them.
[13] You will know that I am Yahweh when their slain men are among their idols around their altars, on every high hill, on all the tops of the mountains, under every green tree, and under every thick oak—the places where they offered pleasant aroma to all their idols.
[14] I will stretch out my hand on them and make the land desolate and waste, from the wilderness toward Diblah, throughout all their habitations. Then they will know that I am Yahweh.’ ”

Young’s Literal Translation

Ezekiel 6 (YLT)

[1] And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying:
[2] ‘Son of man, set thy face unto mountains of Israel, and prophesy concerning them:
[3] And thou hast said: Mountains of Israel, Hear ye a word of the Lord Jehovah: Thus said the Lord Jehovah To the mountains, and to the hills, To the streams, and to the valleys, Lo, I, I am bringing in against you a sword, And I have destroyed your high places.
[4] And desolated have been your altars, And broken your images, And I have caused your wounded to fall before your idols,
[5] And put the carcases of the sons of Israel before their idols, And scattered your bones round about your altars.
[6] In all your dwellings the cities are laid waste, And the high places are desolate, So that waste and desolate are your altars, And broken and ceased have your idols, And cut down have been your images, And blotted out have been your works.
[7] And fallen hath the wounded in your midst, And ye have known that I am Jehovah.
[8] And I have caused some to remain, In their being to you the escaped of the sword among nations, In your being scattered through lands.
[9] And remembered Me have your escaped among nations, Whither they have been taken captive, Because I have been broken with their heart that is going a-whoring, That hath turned aside from off Me, And with their eyes they are going a-whoring after their idols, And they have been loathsome in their own faces, For the evils that they have done-all their abominations.
[10] And they have known that I am Jehovah, Not for nought have I spoken to do to them this evil.
[11] Thus said the Lord Jehovah: ‘Smite with thy palm, and stamp with thy foot, And say: Alas, for all the evil abominations of the house of Israel, Who by sword, by famine, and by pestilence do fall.
[12] The far-off by pestilence dieth, And the near by sword falleth, And the left and the besieged by famine dieth, And I have completed my fury upon them.
[13] And ye have known that I am Jehovah, In their wounded being in the midst of their idols, Round about their altars, On every high hill, on all tops of mountains, And under every green tree, and under every thick oak, The place where they gave sweet fragrance to all their idols.
[14] And I have stretched out my hand against them, And have made the land a desolation, Even a desolation from the wilderness to Diblath, In all their dwellings, And they have known that I am Jehovah!’
