現在你要聽耶和華的話；因為你說：‘不要說預言攻擊以色列，不要說攻擊以撒家的話。’

“人子啊！你要面向耶路撒冷，向聖所發言，說預言攻擊以色列地，

南地的城市已被圍困，沒有人能解圍；整個猶大都被擄走，全被擄去了。

以下是論南地野獸的默示：他們把財富馱在驢駒的背上，把寶物馱在駱駝的峰上，經過艱難困苦之地，就是公獅、母獅、蝮蛇和會飛的火蛇出沒的地方，到一個對他們毫無益處的民族那裡去。

你要面向著被圍困的耶路撒冷，赤露著膀臂，說預言攻擊這城。

黎巴嫩哪！敞開你的門戶，好讓火吞滅你的香柏樹。松樹啊！哀號吧，因為香柏樹已經倒下，雄壯的樹木都毀壞了；巴珊的橡樹啊！哀號吧，因為茂密的樹林被砍下來了。

有人預言說：“你們不要說預言；人不可預言這些事；羞恥不會臨到我們。”

“人子啊！你要面向以色列的群山說預言，

我要指派毀滅者，各有兵器攻擊你；他們必砍下你最好的香柏樹，丟進火裡。

我的教訓下降如雨，我的言語滴落如露，像細雨落在青草上，像甘霖降在蔬菜上。

我說了話以後，他們就不再說，我的言語像雨露一般滴在他們身上。
