Ezekiel 6:1-14

Ezekiel 6:1-14 TPT

YAHWEH said to me: “Son of man, turn toward the mountains of Israel and prophesy against them. Say to them, ‘Mountains of Israel, hear the words of Lord YAHWEH! He prophesies to the mountains and hills, to the ravines and valleys: “ ‘I am wielding a sword against you and I will demolish your shrines. Your altars will be deserted, and your incense altars will be smashed. I will slay your people before your idols. I will lay the corpses of the Israelites before their idols, and I will scatter your bones all around your altars. Wherever you live, your cities will be ruined and your shrines deserted. All your altars will be destroyed and desecrated, and your idols shall be broken and banished. Your incense altars will be chopped down, and all your works wiped out. The slain will lie everywhere in your midst, and you will know that I am YAHWEH! “ ‘I will spare some of you who escape the sword when you are scattered among the nations. Those who escape will remember me among the nations where they are exiles. They will remember how my heart was crushed by their promiscuous ways when they turned their hearts away from me and by their wandering eyes that lusted after idols. They will loathe themselves for the evil things they did and all their detestable practices. And they will realize that it was no idle threat when I, YAHWEH, declared that I would bring this severe punishment upon them.’ ” YAHWEH Hear the words of Lord YAHWEH: “Stomp your feet angrily and pound your fist, and say, ‘How awful!’ over all the evil abominations of the people of Israel. For they will fall by the sword, by food shortages, and by plague. “Those far away will die by the plague, those nearby shall fall by the sword, and those who survive will die of hunger. They will experience the fullness of my fury! “And you will be convinced that I am YAHWEH when their corpses lie scattered around their idols and around their altars, on every high hill, on every mountaintop, under every spreading tree, and under every leafy oak—every place where they have offered soothing incense to all their lifeless idols. I will stretch out my mighty arm against them and turn the land wherever they live into a complete wasteland from the desert to Riblah. And when this happens, they will be convinced that I am YAHWEH!”
