Malachi 1:2-5

2“I loved you,” says the Lord. “But you ask, ‘How did you love us?’ “Wasn’t Esau Jacob’s brother?” declares the Lord. “I loved Jacob,

3but Esau I hated. I turned his mountains into a wasteland and left his inheritance to the jackals in the desert.

4“The descendants of Esau may say, ‘We have been beaten down, but we will rebuild the ruins.’ “Yet, this is what the Lord of Armies says: They may rebuild, but I will tear it down. They will be called ‘the Wicked Land’ and ‘the people with whom the Lord is always angry.’

5You will see these things with your own eyes and say, ‘Even outside the borders of Israel the Lord is great.’
