Ezekiel 35
1 Moreover, the word of the LORD came unto me, saying:
2 Thou son of man, turn thy face toward the mount Seir, prophesy upon it,
3 and say unto it: Thus sayeth the Lord GOD:(LORDE God) Behold (O thou mount Seir) I will upon thee, I will reach out mine hand over thee, yea waste and desolate will I make thee.
4 Thy cities will I break down, and thou shalt lie void: that thou mayest know, how that I am the LORD.
5 For so much as thou bearest an old enemy against the children of Israel, and with a cruel hand hast made them afraid, what time as they were troubled and punished for their sin:
6 Therefore, as truly as I live, sayeth the Lord GOD,(LORDE God) I will prepare thee unto blood, yea blood shall follow upon thee: seeing thou layest wait for blood, therefore shall blood persecute thee.
7 Thus will I make the mount Seir desolate and waste, and bring to pass, that there shall no man go thither, nor come from thence.
8 His mountains will I fill with his slain men: thy hills, dales and valleys shall lie full of them, that are slain with the sword.
9 I will make thee a perpetual wilderness, so that no man shall dwell in thy cities: that ye may know, how that I am the LORD.
10 And because thou hast said: what, both these nations and both these lands must be mine, and I will have them in possession, where as the LORD was there.
11 Therefore thus sayeth the Lord GOD:(LORDE God) As truly as I live, I will handle thee according to thy wrath and jealousy, like as thou hast dealt cruelly with them: that I may be known among them, how I have punished thee.
12 Yea and that thou also mayest be sure, that I the LORD have heard all thy despiteful words, which thou hast spoken against the mountains of Israel, saying: Lo, they are made waste, and given us to devour.
13 Thus with your mouths ye have made your boost against me, yea and multiplied your proud words against me, which I have heard altogether.
14 Where unto, thus sayeth the Lord GOD:(LORDE God) when the whole world is in wealth, then will I make thee waste.
15 And like as thou (O mount Seir) wast glad, because the heritage of the house of Israel was destroyed: even so will I do unto thee also, that thou and whole Edom shall be destroyed, and know, that I am the LORD.
