Ezekiel 35
Prophecy against Mount Seir
1 Now 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, 'This is what the Lord (F1)GOD says:
"Behold, I am against you, Mount Seir,
And I will (C1)reach out with My hand against you
And make you a (C2)desolation and a waste.
4 "I will (C1)turn your cities to ruins,
And you will become a desolation.
Then you will know that I am the LORD.
10 "Since 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 displayed because of your hatred for 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 insults which you have spoken against the mountains of Israel saying, 'They are desolate; they have been (C1)given to us as food.'13 "And you have (F1)(C1)spoken arrogantly against Me and have multiplied your words against Me; (C2)I Myself have heard it."14 'This is what the Lord GOD says: "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, Mount Seir, and all Edom, all of it. Then they will know that I am the LORD."'
