The Book of Ezekiel (WEB)
35: 1Moreover the word of Yahweh came to me, saying, 35:2Son of man, set your face against
Mount Seir, and prophesy against it, 35:3and tell it, Thus says the Lord Yahweh: Behold, I am
against you, Mount Seir, and I will stretch out my hand against you, and I will make you a
desolation and an astonishment. 35:4I will lay your cities waste, and you shall be desolate; and you
shall know that I am Yahweh. 35:5Because you have had a perpetual enmity, and have given over
the children of Israel to the power of the sword in the time of their calamity, in the time of the
iniquity of the end; 35:6therefore, as I live, says the Lord Yahweh, I will prepare you to blood, and
blood shall pursue you: since you have not hated blood, therefore blood shall pursue you. 35:7Thus
will I make Mount Seir an astonishment and a desolation; and I will cut off from it him who
passes through and him who returns. 35:8I will fill its mountains with its slain: in your hills and in
your valleys and in all your watercourses shall they fall who are slain with the sword. 35:9I will
make you a perpetual desolation, and your cities shall not be inhabited; and you shall know that I
am Yahweh. 35:10Because you have said, These two nations and these two countries shall be mine,
and we will possess it; whereas Yahweh was there: 35:11therefore, as I live, says the Lord Yahweh, I
will do according to your anger, and according to your envy which you have shown out of your
hatred against them; and I will make myself known among them, when I shall judge you. 35:12You
shall know that I, Yahweh, have heard all your insults which you have spoken against the
mountains of Israel, saying, They are laid desolate, they are given us to devour. 35:13You have
magnified yourselves against me with your mouth, and have multiplied your words against me: I
have heard it. 35:14Thus says the Lord Yahweh: When the whole earth rejoices, I will make you
desolate. 35:15As you did rejoice over the inheritance of the house of Israel, because it was desolate,
so will I do to you: you shall be desolate, Mount Seir, and all Edom, even all of it; and they shall
know that I am Yahweh.
