I will make thee perpetual desolations, and thy cities shall not return: and ye shall know that I am the LORD.

And the slain shall fall in the midst of you, and ye shall know that I am the LORD.

He that planted the ear, shall he not hear? he that formed the eye, shall he not see?

He that chastiseth the heathen, shall not he correct? he that teacheth man knowledge, shall not he know?

Thus saith the Lord GOD; Because the enemy hath said against you, Aha, even the ancient high places are ours in possession:

Who said, Let us take to ourselves the houses of God in possession.
