Ezekiel 35

1 And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying,

And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying:

2 “Son of man, set your face against Mount Seir, and prophesy against it,

'Son of man, set thy face against mount Seir, and prophesy against it,

3 and you have said to it, Thus said Lord YHWH: Behold, I [am] against you, O Mount Seir, And have stretched out My hand against you, And made you a desolation and an astonishment.

and thou hast said to it: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I [am] against thee, O mount Seir, And have stretched out My hand against thee, And made thee a desolation and an astonishment.

4 I make your cities a ruin, and you are a desolation, And you have known that I [am] YHWH.

Thy cities a waste I make, and thou art a desolation, And thou hast known that I [am] Jehovah.

5 Because of your having continuous enmity, And you saw the sons of Israel, By the hands of the sword, In the time of their calamity, In the time of the iniquity of the end:

Because of thy having an enmity age-during, And thou dost saw the sons of Israel, By the hands of the sword, In the time of their calamity, In the time of the iniquity of the end:

6 Therefore, [as] I live—a declaration of Lord YHWH, Surely I appoint you for blood, And blood pursues you, If you have not hated blood, Blood also pursues you.

Therefore, I live — an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah, Surely for blood I do appoint thee, And blood doth pursue thee, If blood thou hast not hated, Blood also doth pursue thee.

7 And I have given Mount Seir for a desolation and an astonishment, And have cut off from it him who is passing over and him who is returning,

And I have given mount Seir for a desolation and an astonishment, And have cut off from it him who is passing over and him who is returning,

8 And filled his mountains with his wounded, Your hills, and your valleys, and all your streams, The pierced of the sword fall into them.

And filled his mountains with his wounded, Thy hills, and thy valleys, and all thy streams, The pierced of the sword fall into them.

9 I make you continuous desolations, And your cities do not return, And you have known that I [am] YHWH.

Desolations age-during I make thee, And thy cities do not return, And ye have known that I [am] Jehovah.

10 Because of your saying: The two nations and the two lands are mine, and we have possessed it, And YHWH has been there;

Because of thy saying: The two nations and the two lands are mine, and we have possessed it, And Jehovah hath been there;

11 Therefore, [as] I live—a declaration of Lord YHWH, And I have done according to your anger, And according to your envy, With which you have worked, Because of your hatred against them, And I have been known among them when I judge you.

Therefore, I live — an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah, And I have done according to thine anger, And according to thine envy, With which thou hast wrought, Because of thy hatred against them, And I have been known among them when I judge thee.

12 And you have known that I [am] YHWH, I have heard all your despisings that you have spoken Against mountains of Israel, saying, A desolation—they were given to us for food.

And thou hast known that I — Jehovah, I have heard all thy despisings that thou hast spoken Against mountains of Israel, saying: A desolation, to us they were given for food.

13 And you magnify yourselves against Me with your mouth, And have made your words abundant against Me; I have heard.

And ye magnify yourselves against Me with your mouth, And have made abundant against Me your words, I — I have heard.

14 Thus said Lord YHWH: According to the rejoicing of the whole land, I make a desolation of you.

Thus said the Lord Jehovah: According to the rejoicing of the whole land, A desolation I make of thee.

15 According to your joy at the inheritance of the house of Israel because of desolation, So I do to you—you are a desolation, O Mount Seir, and all Edom—all of it, And they have known that I [am] YHWH!”

According to thy joy at the inheritance of the house of Israel because of desolation, So I do to thee — a desolation thou art, O mount Seir, and all Edom — all of it, And they have known that I [am] Jehovah!
