Ezekiel 6:9

Read in context

Ezekiel 6:7–11 · Berean Standard Bible

7 The slain will fall among you, and you will know that I am the LORD.

8 Yet I will leave a remnant, for some of you will escape the sword when you are scattered among the nations and throughout the lands.

9 Then in the nations to which they have been carried captive, your survivors will remember Me—how I have been grieved by their adulterous hearts that turned away from Me, and by their eyes that lusted after idols. So they will loathe themselves for the evil they have done and for all their abominations.

10 And they will know that I am the LORD; I did not declare in vain that I would bring this calamity upon them.

11 This is what the Lord GOD says: Clap your hands, stomp your feet, and cry out “Alas!” because of all the wicked abominations of the house of Israel, who will fall by sword and famine and plague.
