1And the word of Yahweh came, unto me, saying, 2Son of man, Set thy face against Mount Seir,—and prophesy against it; 3and thou shalt say to it, Thus, saith My Lord, Yahweh, Behold me! against thee, Mount Seir,—Therefore will I stretch out my hand against thee, And I will make thee a desolation and an astonishment: 4Thy cities, will I lay waste, And, thou—a desolation, shalt become,—So shalt thou know, that, I, am Yahweh. 5Because 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, 6Therefore, 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, 7So then I will deliver up Mount Seir, to desolation after desolation,—And will cut off therefrom, him that passeth by and him that returneth, 8And 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: 9Desolations age-abiding, will I make thee, And, thy cities, shall not be inhabited,—So shall ye know, that, I, am Yahweh.

10Because thou hast said, the two nations, and the two lands, mine, shall become, that we may possess it, Whereas, Yahweh, had been, there, 11Therefore, 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! 12And 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; 13And so ye have magnified yourselves against me, with your mouth, And have caused to abound against me, your words,—I, have heard! 14Thus, saith My Lord, Yahweh,—When all the earth is rejoicing, a desolation, will I make thee: 15As 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.
