Y los altares construidos en las montañas para los ídolos, a donde acudían a cometer sus maldades los israelitas, serán destruidos por completo, pues era allá donde adoraban a sus ídolos. Sobre las ruinas de esos altares crecerán espinas y cardos, crecerán para cubrirlos completamente. Y la gente clamará a las montañas y a las colinas para que caigan sobre ellos y los aplasten.
