I will make you desolate forever, and your cities shall not again be inhabited; and you shall know that I am Jehovah.

And the slain shall fall in your midst, and you shall know that I am Jehovah.

He who planted the ear, shall He not hear? He who formed the eye, shall He not see?

He who chastens the nations, shall He not correct, He who teaches man knowledge?

Thus says the Lord Jehovah: Because the enemy has said of you, Aha! The ancient heights have become our possession,

who have said, Let us take for ourselves the pastures of God for a possession.
