Thus says the Lord Yahweh
See how you translated this in Ezekiel 5:5.
Disaster! Disaster after disaster! Behold, it is coming!
"Behold, many disasters are coming to you" or "Behold, many terrible things will happen to you."
Behold
The word “behold” here adds emphasis to what follows. Alternate translations: “Look” or “Listen” or “Pay attention to what I am about to tell you.”
the end has woken up against you
The judgment that is coming is treated as if it were an enemy waking up from sleep. (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-personification)
the mountains will no longer be joyful
"the people on the mountains will not have anymore joy." (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-synecdoche)
