- Chapter 35 -

1
Then the word of Yahweh came to me and said,
2
“Son of man, set your face against Mount Seir and prophesy against it.
3
Say to it, ’Lord Yahweh says this: Behold! I am against you, Mount Seir, and I will strike you with my hand and make you a desolation and a horror.
4
I will make your cities ruins, and you yourself will become desolate; then you will know that I am Yahweh.
5
Because you have always been hostile to the people of Israel, and because you poured them out into the hands of the sword at the time of their distress, at the time their punishment was at its greatest.
6
Therefore, as I live-this is Lord Yahweh’s declaration-I will prepare you for bloodshed, and bloodshed will pursue you! Since you did not hate bloodshed, bloodshed will pursue you.
7
I will make Mount Seir a complete desolation when I cut off from it anyone who passes through and returns again.
8
Then I will fill its mountains with its dead. Your high hills and valleys and all of your streams-those killed by the sword will fall in them.
9
I will make you a perpetual desolation. Your cities will not be inhabited, but you will know that I am Yahweh.
10
You have said, “These two nations and these two lands will become mine, and we will possess them,” even when Yahweh was present with them.
11
Therefore, as I live-this is Lord Yahweh’s declaration-so I will do according to your anger and according to your jealousy that you had in your hatred of Israel, and I will show myself to them when I judge you.
12
So you will know that I am Yahweh. I have heard all the insults you spoke against the mountains of Israel, when you said, “They have been destroyed; they have been given over to us to devour.”
13
You exalted yourselves against me with what you said, and you multiplied the words you said against me; and I heard it all.
14
Lord Yahweh says this: I will make you a desolation, while the entire earth rejoices.
15
As you rejoiced over the inheritance of the people of Israel because of its desolation, I will do the same to you. You will become a desolation, Mount Seir, and all of Edom-all of it! Then they will know that I am Yahweh.’”
1
Moreover the LORD’s word came to me, saying,
2
Son of man, set your face against Mount Seir, and prophesy against it,
3
and tell it, ‘The Lord GOD says: “Behold, I am against you, Mount Seir, and I will stretch out my hand against you. I will make you a desolation and an astonishment.
4
I will lay your cities waste, and you will be desolate. Then you will know that I am the LORD.
5
“‘“Because you have had a perpetual hostility, and have given over the children of Israel to the power of the sword in the time of their calamity, in the time of the iniquity of the end,
6
therefore, as I live,” says the Lord GOD, “I will prepare you for blood, and blood will pursue you. Since you have not hated blood, therefore blood will pursue you.
7
Thus I will make Mount Seir an astonishment and a desolation. I will cut off from it him who passes through and him who returns.
8
I will fill its mountains with its slain. The slain with the sword will fall in your hills and in your valleys and in all your watercourses.
9
I will make you a perpetual desolation, and your cities will not be inhabited. Then you will know that I am the LORD.
10
“‘“Because you have said, ‘These two nations and these two countries will be mine, and we will possess it,’ although the LORD was there,
11
therefore, as I live,” says the Lord GOD, “I will do according to your anger, and according to your envy which you have shown out of your hatred against them; and I will make myself known among them when I judge you.
12
You will know that I, the LORD, have heard all your insults which you have spoken against the mountains of Israel, saying, ‘They have been laid desolate. They have been given to us to devour.’
13
You have magnified yourselves against me with your mouth, and have multiplied your words against me. I have heard it.”
14
The Lord GOD says: “When the whole earth rejoices, I will make you desolate.
15
As you rejoiced over the inheritance of the house of Israel because it was desolate, so I will do to you. You will be desolate, Mount Seir, and all Edom, even all of it. Then they will know that I am the LORD.’”
