ULT EZE Chapter 6

◄ EZE 6 ► ║ ═ ©

6 And the word of Yahweh was to me, saying, 2 “Son of man, set your face to the mountains of Israel and prophesy to them. 3 And you shall say, ‘Mountains of Israel, hear the word of the Lord Yahweh! Thus says the Lord Yahweh to the mountains and to the hills, to the streambeds and to the valleys: Look at me! I am bringing against you a sword, and I will destroy your high places. 4 Then your sacrificial altars will become desolate, and your incense altars will be broken. And I will throw down your slain in front of your idols. 5 I will place the corpses of the sons of Israel in front of their idols, and I will scatter your bones all around your sacrificial altars. 6 In all your dwellings, the cities will dry up, and the high places will be desolate, so that your sacrificial altars will be dried up and desolate. Then your idols will be broken and disappear, and your incense altars will be hewn, and your works will be annihilated. 7 And the slain will fall in your midst, and you will know that I, am Yahweh.

8 But I will reserve some, when you become survivors of a sword among the nations, when you are scattered among the lands. 9 Then your survivors will remember me among the nations where they were deported there—that I was shattered, by their heart, the prostituting one, which turned away from me, and by their eyes, the ones prostituting after their idols. Then they will feel disgust on their faces toward the evils that they did by all their abominations. 10 And they will know that I, am Yahweh. It was not for nothing, that I spoke to do to them this disaster.

11 Thus says the Lord Yahweh: Strike with your palms and stomp with your foot! And say, ‘Ah!’ toward all the abominations of the evils of the house of Israel! For by the sword, by the famine, and by the plague, they will fall. 12 The remote one—by the plague, he will die; and the near one—by the sword, he will fall; and the remaining one and the spared one—by the famine, he will die. So I will complete my heat among them. 13 Then you will know that I am Yahweh, when their slain are in the midst of their idols, all around their sacrificial altars, on every high hill—on all the tops of the mountains and under every green tree and under every leafy oak—the place where they gave there a scent of pleasing to all of their idols. 14 And I will stretch out my hand against them, and I will make the land a desolation and a devastation—from the wilderness to Diblah, throughout every dwelling. And they will know that I, am Yahweh.” [fn]

Instead of Diblah, some ancient copies and modern versions have Riblah.
