6. Wherever you live there will be desolation, and I will destroy your pagan shrines. Your altars will be demolished, your idols will be smashed, your places of worship will be torn down, and all the religious objects you have made will be destroyed.
7. The place will be littered with corpses, and you will know that I alone am the lord.
8. “But I will let a few of my people escape destruction, and they will be scattered among the nations of the world.
9. Then when they are exiled among the nations, they will remember me. They will recognize how hurt I am by their unfaithful hearts and lustful eyes that long for their idols. Then at last they will hate themselves for all their detestable sins.
10. They will know that I alone am the lord and that I was serious when I said I would bring this calamity on them.
