Ezekiel Chapter 35

1Then the word of the Lord came to me and said, 2“Son of Adam, direct your attention to Mount Seir, and prophesy against it, 3and say to it, ‘This is what my Lord the Lord says:

«Here I am against you, O Mount Seir,

And I have stretched out my hand against you,

And I have appointed you to desolation and devastation.

4I will make your cities a ruin,

And you will be a desolation.

And you will know that I am the Lord,

5Because you have had an age-old hostility,

And you delivered the sons of Israel to the edges of the sword

At the time of their calamity,

At the time of the final iniquity.

6Therefore, as I live, says the Lord, the Lord, I will destine you for blood, and blood will pursue you. You have certainly hated in a bloody way, and blood will pursue you. 7And I will make Mount Seir a desolation and a devastation, and I will cut it off for anyone passing by or coming back. 8And I will fill its mountains with its men struck through. On your hills and in your valleys and all your watercourses, victims of the sword will fall. 9I will make you into age-abiding desolations, and your cities will not be inhabited, and you will know that I am the Lord. 10Because you said, ‹The two nations and the two countries will be mine, and we will inherit it›, when the Lord was present there. 11As I live, says the Lord, the Lord, I will act according to your anger and your envy which you have shown, because of your hatred of them. And I will have become known among them when I judge you. 12And you will know that I am the Lord. I have heard all your insults which you have uttered against the mountains of Israel, saying, ‹It has become desolate; they have been delivered to us as prey.› 13And you have acted presumptuously against me with your mouth, and you have been profuse with your words against me. I have heard them14This is what my Lord the Lord says: «When the whole of the land is joyful, I will make you a desolation. 15As was your rejoicing at the fate of the house of Israel, because it had become desolate, so I will do to you. Mount Seir, you will become a desolation, as will all of Edom in its entirety, and they will know that I am the Lord.» ’ ”
