35 (1) The word of GOD came to me: (2) O mortal, set your face against Mount Seir and prophesy against it. (3) Say to it: Thus said the Sovereign GOD: I am going to deal with you, Mount Seir: I will stretch out My hand against you and make you an utter waste. (4) I will turn your towns into ruins, and you shall be a desolation; then you shall know that I am GOD. (5) Because you harbored an ancient hatred and handed the people of Israel over to the sword in their time of calamity, the time set for their punishment— (6) assuredly, as I live, declares the Sovereign GOD, I will doom you with blood; blood shall pursue you; I swear that, for your bloodthirsty hatred, blood shall pursue you. (7) I will make Mount Seir an utter waste, and I will keep all passersby away from it. (8) I will cover its mountains with the slain; those slain by the sword shall lie on your hills, in your valleys, and in all your watercourses. (9) I will make you a desolation for all time; your towns shall never be inhabited. And you shall know that I am GOD. (10) Because you thought “The two nations and the two lands shall be mine and we shall possess them”—although GOD was there— (11) assuredly, as I live, declares the Sovereign GOD, I will act with the same anger and passion that you acted with in your hatred of them. And I will make Myself known through them when I judge you. (12) You shall know that I, GOD, have heard all the taunts you uttered against the hills of Israel: “They have been laid waste; they have been given to us as prey.” (13) And you spoke arrogantly against Me and multiplied your words against Me: I have heard it. (14) Thus said the ETERNAL God: When the whole earth rejoices, I will make you a desolation. (15) As you rejoiced when the heritage of the House of Israel was laid waste, so will I treat you: the hill country of Seir and the whole of Edom, all of it, shall be laid waste. And they shall know that I am GOD.
