¹² And you will see that I the Lord have had knowledge of all the bitter things which you have said against the mountains of Israel, saying, They have been made waste, they are given to us to take for our heritage.

² This is what the Lord has said: Because your hater has said against you, Aha! and, The old waste places are our heritage, we have taken them:

¹² Who have said, Let us take for our heritage the resting-place of God.

⁹ Has he by whom your ears were planted no hearing? or is he blind by whom your eyes were formed?

¹⁰ He who is the judge of the nations, will he not give men the reward of their acts, even he who gives knowledge to man?

⁷ They have been attacked by all those who came across them: and their attackers said, We are doing no wrong, because they have done evil against the Lord in whom is righteousness, against the Lord, the hope of their fathers.

⁷ And the dead will be falling down among you, and you will be certain that I am the Lord.

⁹ I will make you waste for ever, and your towns will be unpeopled: and you will be certain that I am the Lord.
