1 The word of the Lord came to me:
2 Son of man, set your face toward the mountains of Israel and prophesy against them:
3 You shall say: Mountains of Israel, hear the word of the Lord God. Thus says the Lord God to the mountains and hills, to the ravines and valleys: Pay attention! I am bringing a sword against you, and I will destroy your high places.
4 Your altars shall be laid waste, your incense stands smashed, and I will throw your slain down in front of your idols.
5 Yes, I will lay the corpses of the Israelites in front of their idols, and scatter your bones around your altars.
6 Wherever you live, cities shall be ruined and high places laid waste, in order that your altars be laid waste and devastated, your idols broken and smashed, your incense altars hacked to pieces, and whatever you have made wiped out.
