29 You will eat the bodies of your sons and daughters.
30 I will destroy your worship sites, cut down your incense altars, and pile your dead bodies on top of your dead idols. I will look at you with disgust.
31 I will make your cities deserted and ruin your sacred places. I will no longer accept the soothing aroma from your sacrifices.
32 I will make your land so deserted that your enemies will be shocked as they settle in it.
33 I will scatter you among the nations. War will follow you. Your country will be in ruins. Your cities will be deserted.
34 “Then the land will enjoy its time ⌊to honor the Lord⌋ while it lies deserted and you are in your enemies’ land. Then the land will joyfully celebrate its time ⌊to honor the Lord⌋.
35 All the days it lies deserted, it will celebrate the time ⌊to honor the Lord⌋ it never celebrated while you lived there.
