| 1[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 1Moreover, the word of the LORD came to me, saying, |
| 2[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 2“Son of man, set your face against Mount Seir and prophesy against it, |
| 3[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 3and declare that this is what the Lord GOD says: Behold, I am against you, O Mount Seir. I will stretch out My hand against you and make you a desolate waste. |
| 4[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 4I will turn your cities into ruins, and you will become a desolation. Then you will know that I am the LORD. |
| 5[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 5Because you harbored an ancient hatred and delivered the Israelites over to the sword in the time of their disaster at the final stage of their punishment, |
| 6[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 6therefore as surely as I live, declares the Lord GOD, I will give you over to bloodshed and it will pursue you. Since you did not hate bloodshed, it will pursue you. |
| 7[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 7I will make Mount Seir a desolate waste and will cut off from it those who come and go. |
| 8[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 8I will fill its mountains with the slain; those killed by the sword will fall on your hills, in your valleys, and in all your ravines. |
| 9[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 9I will make you a perpetual desolation, and your cities will not be inhabited. Then you will know that I am the LORD. |
| 10[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 10Because you have said, ‘These two nations and countries will be ours, and we will possess them,’ even though the LORD was there, |
| 11[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 11therefore as surely as I live, declares the Lord GOD, I will treat you according to the anger and jealousy you showed in your hatred against them, and I will make Myself known among them when I judge you. |
| 12[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 12Then you will know that I, the LORD, have heard every contemptuous word you uttered against the mountains of Israel when you said, ‘They are desolate; they are given to us to devour!’ |
| 13[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 13You boasted against Me with your mouth and multiplied your words against Me. I heard it Myself! |
| 14[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 14This is what the Lord GOD says: While the whole earth rejoices, I will make you desolate. |
| 15[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 15As you rejoiced when the inheritance of the house of Israel became desolate, so will I do to you. You will become a desolation, O Mount Seir, and so will all of Edom. Then they will know that I am the LORD. |
