5 and I will place the corpses of the children of Israel before their idols, and I will scatter your bones around your altars.
6 In all of your dwellings, the cities will be desolate and the high places will be ruined, so that your altars will be desolate and will suffer punishment. Your idols will be broken and will come to an end, and your incense altars will be cut down, and your works will be destroyed,
7 and the slain one will fall in the midst of you, and then you will know that I am Yahweh.
8 But I will spare some, so there will be for you fugitives from the sword among the nations when you are scattered in the countries.
9 And your fugitives will remember me among the nations to which they were taken captive, that I was shattered by their adulterous heart which departed from me, and by their adulterous eyes which went after their idols, and they will feel loathing for themselves, for the evil that they did, for all of their detestable things.
10 And they will know that I am Yahweh; not in vain I spoke to bring to them this evil.” ’
11 Thus says the Lord Yahweh: ‘Clap your hand and stamp with your foot, and say, “Alas, for all of the detestable things of the evil of the house of Israel, because of which they will fall with the sword, with the famine, and with the plague.
