Ezekiel 35



1.  Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying * ,

2.  Son of man, set * thy face against mount Seir, and prophesy * against it,

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

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

5.  Because 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:

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

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

8.  And 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.

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

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

11.  Therefore, as I live, saith * the Lord GOD, I will even do * according to thine anger, and according to thine envy which thou hast used * out of thy hatred against them; and I will make myself known * among them, when I have judged * thee.

12.  And thou shalt know * that I am the LORD, and that I have heard * all thy blasphemies which thou hast spoken * against the mountains of Israel, saying * , They are laid desolate * , they are given * us to consume.

13.  Thus with your mouth ye have boasted * against me, and have multiplied * your words against me: I have heard * them.

14.  Thus saith * the Lord GOD; When the whole earth rejoiceth * , I will make * thee desolate.

15.  As thou didst rejoice at the inheritance of the house of Israel, because it was desolate * , so will I do * unto thee: thou shalt be desolate, O mount Seir, and all Idumea, even all of it: and they shall know * that I am the LORD.
