< Ezekiel 35 >
1 Then the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
And it came [the] word of Yahweh to me saying.
2 Son of man, let your face be turned to Mount Seir, and be a prophet against it,
O son of humankind set face your on [the] mountain of Seir and prophesy on it.
3 And say to it, This is what the Lord has said: See, I am against you, O Mount Seir, and my hand will be stretched out against you, and I will make you a waste and a cause for wonder.
And you will say to it thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh here I [am] against you O mountain of Seir and I will stretch out hand my on you and I will make you a desolation and a waste.
4 I will make your towns unpeopled and you will be a waste; and you will be certain that I am the Lord.
Cities your a ruin I will make and you a desolation you will be and you will know that I [am] Yahweh.
5 Because yours has been a hate without end, and you have given up the children of Israel to the power of the sword in the time of their trouble, in the time of the punishment of the end:
Because belonged to you enmity of antiquity and you poured [the] people of Israel over [the] hands of [the] sword at [the] time of disaster their at a time of punishment of [the] end.
6 For this cause, by my life, says the Lord, because you have been sinning through blood, blood will come after you.
Therefore [by] [the] life of me [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh that to blood I will appoint you and blood it will pursue you if not blood you have hated and blood it will pursue you.
7 And I will make Mount Seir a cause for wonder and a waste, cutting off from it all comings and goings.
And I will make [the] mountain of Seir into a desolation and a desolation and I will cut off from it [one who] passes through and [one who] returns.
8 I will make his mountains full of those who have been put to death; in your valleys and in all your water-streams men will be falling by the sword.
And I will fill mountains its slain [ones] its hills your and valleys your and all ravines your [those] slain of a sword they will fall in them.
9 I will make you waste for ever, and your towns will be unpeopled: and you will be certain that I am the Lord.
Desolations of perpetuity I will make you and cities your not (they will return *Q(K)*) and you will know that I [am] Yahweh.
10 Because you have said, The two nations and the two countries are to be mine, and we will take them for our heritage; though the Lord was there:
Because saying you [the] two the nations and [the] two the lands to me they will belong and we will take possession of it and Yahweh there he was.
11 For this cause, by my life, says the Lord, I will do to you as you have done in your wrath and in your envy, which you have made clear in your hate for them; and I will make clear to you who I am when you are judged by me.
Therefore [by] [the] life of me [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh and I will act according to anger your and according to jealousy your which you did from hatred your with them and I will make myself known among them when I will judge you.
12 And you will see that I the Lord have had knowledge of all the bitter things which you have said against the mountains of Israel, saying, They have been made waste, they are given to us to take for our heritage.
And you will know that I Yahweh I have heard - all insults your which you have said on [the] mountains of Israel saying - (they have been desolated *Q(K)*) to us they have been given for devouring.
13 And you have made yourselves great against me with your mouths, increasing your words against me; and it has come to my ears.
And you have magnified yourselves on me with mouth your and you have multiplied on me words your I I have heard.
14 This is what the Lord has said: Because you were glad over my land when it was a waste, so will I do to you:
Thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh when rejoices all the earth desolation I will make for you.
15 You will become a waste, O Mount Seir, and all Edom, even all of it: and you will be certain that I am the Lord.
According to rejoicing your to [the] inheritance of [the] house of Israel on that it had been desolated so I will do to you a desolation you will be O mountain of Seir and all Edom all of it and they will know that I [am] Yahweh.
