1. Yahweh’s word came to me, saying,
2. “Son of man, set your face toward the mountains of Israel, and prophesy to them,
3. and say, ‘You mountains of Israel, hear the word of the Lord Yahweh! Thus says the Lord Yahweh to the mountains and to the hills, to the watercourses and to the valleys: “Behold, I, even I, will bring a sword on you, and I will destroy your high places.
4. Your altars will become desolate, and your incense altars will be broken. I will cast down your slain men before your idols.
5. I will lay the dead bodies of the children of Israel before their idols; and I will scatter your bones around your altars.
