1And the word of יהוה came to me, saying,

2“Son of man, set your face against Mount Sĕ‛ir and prophesy against it,

3and you shall say to it, ‘Thus said the Master יהוה, “See, O Mount Sĕ‛ir, I am against you, and shall stretch out My hand against you, and shall make you a ruin and a waste.

4“Your cities I destroy, and let you be a ruin. And you shall know that I am יהוה.

5“Because you have had a continuous enmity, and handed the children of Yisra’ĕl over to the power of the sword at the time of their calamity, at the time of the crookedness of the end.

6“Therefore, as I live,” declares the Master יהוה, “I shall appoint you for blood, and let blood pursue you. Since you did not hate blood, therefore blood shall pursue you.

7“And I shall make Mount Sĕ‛ir a ruin and a waste, and cut off from it the one who leaves and the one who returns,

8and shall fill its mountains with the slain, those slain by the sword falling on your hills and in your valleys and in all your ravines.

9“I shall make you an everlasting ruin, and your cities uninhabited. And you shall know that I am יהוה.

10“Because you have said, ‘These two nations and these two lands are mine, and we shall possess them,’ although יהוה was there,

11therefore, as I live,” declares the Master יהוה, “I shall do according to your displeasure and according to your envy which you showed in your hatred against them. And I shall make Myself known among them when I judge you.

12“And you shall know that I am יהוה. I have heard all your scorns which you have spoken against the mountains of Yisra’ĕl, saying, ‘They are laid waste, they were given to us for food.’

13“And with your mouth you have boasted against Me and increased your words against Me – I Myself have heard.”

14‘Thus said the Master יהוה, “As all the earth is rejoicing I shall make you a ruin.

15“As you rejoiced because the inheritance of the house of Yisra’ĕl was laid waste, so I do to you: be a ruin, O Mount Sĕ‛ir, as well as all of Eḏom, all of it! And they shall know that I am יהוה.” ’
