Contextual Overview
1And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying, 2"Son of man, set your face toward mountains of Israel, and prophesy concerning them: 3And you have said, Mountains of Israel, || Hear a word of Lord YHWH! Thus said Lord YHWH, || To the mountains, and to the hills, || To the streams, and to the valleys: Behold, I am bringing in a sword against you, || And I have destroyed your high places. 4And your altars have been desolated, || And your images have been broken, || And I have caused your wounded to fall before your idols, 5And I have put the carcasses of the sons of Israel before their idols, || And I have scattered your bones around your altars.6In all your dwellings the cities are laid waste, || And the high places are desolate, || So that your altars are dry and desolate, || Your idols have broken and ceased, || And your images have been cut down, || And your works have been blotted out. 7And the wounded has fallen in your midst, || And you have known that I [am] YHWH.
