10 And they shall know that I am the Lord; I have not said in vain that I would bring this calamity upon them.”

12 He who is far off shall die by the pestilence, he who is near shall fall by the sword, and he who remains and is besieged shall die by the famine. aThus will I spend My fury upon them.  
13 Then you shall know that I am the Lord, when their slain are among their idols all around their altars, aon every high hill, bon all the mountaintops, cunder every green tree, and under every thick oak, wherever they offered sweet incense to all their idols.  
14 So I will astretch out My hand against them and make the land desolate, yes, more desolate than the wilderness toward bDiblah, in all their dwelling places. Then they shall know that I am the Lord.’ ” ’ ”
