1 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
1 Moreover Yahweh’s word came to me, saying,
2 Son of man, set thy face against Mount Seir, and prophesy against it,
2 “Son of man, set your face against Mount Seir, and prophesy against it,
3 and say to it, Thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I am against thee, O Mount Seir, and I will stretch out my hand against thee, and will make thee a waste, and thou shalt be made desolate.
3 and tell it, ‘The Lord Yahweh 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 And I will cause desolation in thy cities, and thou shalt be desolate, and thou shalt know that I am the Lord.
4 I will lay your cities waste, and you will be desolate. Then you will know that I am Yahweh.
5 Because thou hast been a perpetual enemy, and hast laid wait craftily for the house of Israel, with the hand of enemies with a sword, in the time of injustice, at the last:
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, saith the Lord God, verily thou hast sinned even to blood, therefore blood shall pursue thee.
6 therefore, as I live,” says the Lord Yahweh, “I will prepare you for blood, and blood will pursue you. Since you have not hated blood, therefore blood will pursue you.
7 And I will make Mount Seir a waste, and desolate, and I will destroy from off it men and cattle:
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 and I will fill thy hills and thy valleys with slain men, and in all thy plains there shall fall in thee men slain with the sword.
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 thee a perpetual desolation, and thy cities shall not be inhabited anymore: and thou shalt know that I am the Lord.
9 I will make you a perpetual desolation, and your cities will not be inhabited. Then you will know that I am Yahweh.
10 Because thou saidst, The two nations and the two countries shall be mine, and I shall inherit them; whereas the Lord is there:
10 “‘“Because you have said, ‘These two nations and these two countries will be mine, and we will possess it,’ although Yahweh was there,
11 therefore, [as] I live, saith the Lord, I will even deal with thee according to thine enmity, and I will be made known to thee when I shall judge thee:
11 therefore, as I live,” says the Lord Yahweh, “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 and thou shalt know that I am the Lord. I have heard the voice of thy blasphemies, whereas thou hast said, The desert mountains of Israel are given to us for food;
12 You will know that I, Yahweh, 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 and thou hast spoken swelling words against me with thy mouth: I have heard [them].
13 You have magnified yourselves against me with your mouth, and have multiplied your words against me. I have heard it.”
14 Thus saith the Lord; When all the earth is rejoicing, I will make thee desert.
14 The Lord Yahweh says: “When the whole earth rejoices, I will make you desolate.
15 Thou shalt be desert, O Mount Seir, and all Edom; and it shall be utterly consumed: and thou shalt know that I am the Lord their God.
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 Yahweh.’”
