[1]MOREOVER the word of the LORD came to me, saying, |
| [No book] |
[2]Son of man, set your face against mount Seir and prophesy against it, |
| [No book] |
[3]And say to it, Thus says the LORD God: Behold, I am against you, O mount Seir, and I will stretch out my hand against you, and I will make you desolate and waste. |
| [No book] |
[4]And I will lay your cities waste, and you shall be desolate, and you shall know that I am the LORD. |
| [No book] |
[5]Because you have had a perpetual enmity and delivered the children of Israel over to the sword at the time of their calamity, at the time when their iniquity had come to an end, |
| [No book] |
[6]Therefore, as I live, says the LORD God, I will deliver you to the slaughter, and blood shall pursue you; the blood which you have hated, that very blood shall pursue you. |
| [No book] |
[7]I will make mount Seir waste and desolate, and destroy from it him that goes out and him that comes in. |
| [No book] |
[8]And I will fill his mountains with his slain; on your crags and on your hills and in your valleys shall they fall that are slain with the sword. |
| [No book] |
[9]I will make you a perpetual desolation, and your cities shall not be inhabited; and you shall know that I am the LORD |
| [No book] |
[10]Because you have said, These two nations and these two kingdoms are mine, and we will possess them, though the LORD was there; |
| [No book] |
[11]Therefore, as I live, says the LORD God, I will do to you according to your own anger and according to your enmity which you showed toward them, and hatred to them; and I will make myself known among them when I have judged you. |
| [No book] |
[12]And you shall know that I am the LORD and that I have heard all your blasphemies which you have spoken against the mountains of Israel, saying, They are laid desolate, they are given us to consume. |
| [No book] |
[13]Thus you dared to speak against me with your mouth, and have multiplied your words against me; I heard them. |
| [No book] |
[14]Thus says the LORD God to mount Seir which is situated at the happiest place on the earth: I will make you desolate. |
| [No book] |
[15]As you rejoiced over the inheritance of the house of Israel because it was desolate, so will I do to you; you shall be desolate, O mount Seir, and all Edom, even all of it; and they shall know that I am the LORD |
