Ezekiel 35:1-15
35 And the word of Yahweh came unto me saying:
2 Son of man, Set thy face against Mount Seir,—and prophesy against it;
3 and thou shalt say to it, Thus saith My Lord Yahweh, Behold me! against thee, O Mount Seir,—Therefore will I stretch out my hand against thee, And I will make thee a desolation and an astonishment:
4 Thy cities will I lay waste, And thou—a desolation shalt become,—So shalt thou know that I am Yahweh.
5 Because thou hast had an age-abiding enmity, And hast delivered up the sons of Israel unto the hands of the sword,—In the time of their misfortune, In the time of the final punishment for iniquity
6 Therefore as I live Declareth My Lord Yahweh, Surely regarding blood will I deal with thee, Blood therefore, shall pursue thee,—Since blood thou hast not hated Therefore blood shall pursue thee,
7 So then I will deliver up Mount Seir to desolation after desolation,—And will cut off therefrom him that passeth by and him that returneth,
8 And I will fill his mountains with his slain,—As for thy hills and thy hollows and all thy channels they who are thrust through by the sword shall fall therein:
9 Desolations age-abiding will I make thee, And thy cities shall not be inhabited,—So shall ye know that I am Yahweh.
10 Because thou hast said, The two nations and the two lands mine shall become that we may possess it Whereas Yahweh had been there
11 Therefore as I live Declareth My Lord Yahweh, I will even deal according to thine anger and according to thine envy, wherewith thou hast dealt out of thy hatred with them,—So will I make myself known among them as soon as I shall judge thee!
12 And thou shalt know that I Yahweh have heard all thy revilings which thou hast uttered against the mountains of Israel saying, They have become desolate,—To us have they been given for food;
13 And so ye have magnified yourselves against me with your mouth, And have caused to abound against me your words,—I have heard!
14 Thus saith My Lord Yahweh,—When all the earth is rejoicing a desolation will I make thee:
15 As thou didst rejoice over the inheritance of the house of Israel because it had become a desolation so will I do unto thee,—A desolation shalt thou become, O Mount Seir, And all Edom, all of it, So shall they know that I am Yahweh.
