Ezekiel 35:3-10

3And say unto it, Thus saith the Lord Yhwh; Behold, O mount Seir, I am against thee, and I will stretch out mine hand against thee, and I will make thee most desolate.1

4I will lay thy cities waste, and thou shalt be desolate, and thou shalt know that I am Yhwh.

5Because thou hast had a perpetual hatred, and hast shed the blood of the children of Israel by the force of the sword in the time of their calamity, in the time that their iniquity had an end:234

6Therefore, as I live, saith the Lord Yhwh, I will prepare thee unto blood, and blood shall pursue thee: sith thou hast not hated blood, even blood shall pursue thee.

7Thus will I make mount Seir most desolate, and cut off from it him that passeth out and him that returneth.5

8And I will fill his mountains with his slain men: in thy hills, and in thy valleys, and in all thy rivers, shall they fall that are slain with the sword.

9I will make thee perpetual desolations, and thy cities shall not return: and ye shall know that I am Yhwh.

10Because thou hast said, These two nations and these two countries shall be mine, and we will possess it; whereas Yhwh was there:6
