Among the slain
they prepare a resting place for Elam
with all her hordes.
Her graves are all around her.

“Son of man, get your bags ready for exile and go into exile in their sight during the day. You will go into exile from your place to another place while they watch; perhaps they will understand, though they are a rebellious house.

So I asked them: What is this high place you are going to? And it is called High Place to this day.

I will tend them with good pasture, and their grazing place will be on Israel’s lofty mountains. There they will lie down in a good grazing place; they will feed in rich pasture on the mountains of Israel.
