Prophecy against Mount Seir

¹ Moreover, the word of the LORD came to me saying,² "Son of man, set your face against ^(C1)Mount Seir, and prophesy against it³ and say to it, 'Thus says the Lord ^(F1)GOD,

"Behold, I am against you, Mount Seir,
And I will ^(C1)stretch out My hand against you
And make you a ^(C2)desolation and a waste.

⁴ "I will ^(C1)lay waste your cities
And you will become a desolation.
Then you will know that I am the LORD.

¹⁰ "Because you have ^(C1)said, 'These two nations and these two lands will be mine, and we will possess ^(F1)them,' although the ^(C2)LORD was there,¹¹ therefore as I live," declares the Lord GOD, "I will deal with you ^(C1)according to your anger and according to your envy which you showed because of your hatred against them; so I will ^(C2)make Myself known among them when I judge you.¹² "Then you will know ^(F1)that I, the LORD, have heard all your revilings which you have spoken against the mountains of Israel saying, 'They are laid desolate; they are ^(C1)given to us for food.'¹³ "And you have ^(F1)(C1)spoken arrogantly against Me and have multiplied your words against Me; ^(C2)I have heard it."¹⁴ 'Thus says the Lord GOD, "As all the ^(C1)earth rejoices, I will make you a desolation.¹⁵ "As you ^(C1)rejoiced over the inheritance of the house of Israel because it was desolate, ^(C2)so I will do to you. You will be a ^(C3)desolation, O Mount Seir, and all Edom, all of it. Then they will know that I am the LORD."'
