Ezekiel 35:5-15
5Since you have had everlasting 1hostility and have turned over the sons of Israel to the power of the sword at the time of their disaster, at the time of the 23punishment of the end, 6therefore as I live,” declares the Lord God, “I will certainly 4doom you to 5bloodshed, and bloodshed will pursue you; since you have not hated bloodshed, therefore bloodshed will pursue you. 7I will make Mount Seir a waste and a desolation and I will eliminate from it one who passes through and returns. 8I will 6fill its mountains with its slain; those killed by the sword will fall on your hills, in your valleys, and in all your ravines. 9I will make you a permanent 7desolation, and your cities will not be inhabited. Then you will know that I am the Lord.
10“Since you have 8said, ‘These two nations and these two lands will be mine, and we will possess 9them,’ although the 10Lord was there, 11therefore as I live,” declares the Lord God, “I will deal with you 11according to your anger and according to your envy which you displayed because of your hatred for them; so I will 12make Myself known among them when I judge you. 12Then you will know 13that I, the Lord, have heard all your insults which you have spoken against the mountains of Israel saying, ‘They are desolate; they have been 14given to us as food.’ 13And you have 1516spoken arrogantly against Me and have multiplied your words against Me; 17I Myself have heard it.” 14This is what the Lord God says: “As all the 18earth rejoices, I will make you a desolation. 15As you 19rejoiced over the inheritance of the house of Israel because it was desolate, 20so I will do to you. You will be a 21desolation, Mount Seir, and all Edom, all of it. Then they will know that I am the Lord.”’
