5 But if you will not hear these words, aI swear by Myself,” says the Lord, “that this house shall become a desolation.” ’ ”
6 For thus says the Lord to the house of the king of Judah:
“You are aGilead to Me,
The head of Lebanon;
Yet I surely will make you a wilderness,
Cities which are not inhabited.
“You are aGilead to Me,
The head of Lebanon;
Yet I surely will make you a wilderness,
Cities which are not inhabited.
7 I will prepare destroyers against you,
Everyone with his weapons;
They shall cut down ayour choice cedars
bAnd cast them into the fire.
Everyone with his weapons;
They shall cut down ayour choice cedars
bAnd cast them into the fire.
8 And many nations will pass by this city; and everyone will say to his neighbor, a‘Why has the Lord done so to this great city?’
9 Then they will answer, a‘Because they have forsaken the covenant of the Lord their God, and worshiped other gods and served them.’ ”
