1And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
1Moreover the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
2Son of man, set thy face against mount Seir, and prophesy against it,
2Son of man, set thy face against mount Seir, and prophesy against it,
3and say to it, Thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I am against thee, O mount Seir, and I will stretch out my hand against thee, and will make thee a waste, and thou shalt be made desolate.
3And say unto it, Thus saith the Lord God; Behold, O mount Seir, I am against thee, and I will stretch out mine hand against thee, and I will make thee most desolate.
4And I will cause desolation in thy cities , and thou shalt be desolate, and thou shalt know that I am the Lord.
4I will lay thy cities waste, and thou shalt be desolate, and thou shalt know that I am the Lord.
5Because thou hast been a perpetual enemy, and hast laid wait craftily for the house of Israel, with the hand of enemies with a sword, in the time of injustice, at the last:
5Because thou hast had a perpetual hatred, and hast shed the blood of the children of Israel by the force of the sword in the time of their calamity, in the time that their iniquity had an end:
6Therefore, as I live, saith the Lord God, verily thou hast sinned even to blood, therefore blood shall pursue thee.
6Therefore, as I live, saith the Lord God, I will prepare thee unto blood, and blood shall pursue thee: sith thou hast not hated blood, even blood shall pursue thee.
7And I will make mount Seir a waste, and desolate, and I will destroy from off it men and cattle:
7Thus will I make mount Seir most desolate, and cut off from it him that passeth out and him that returneth.
8and I will fill thy hillsand thy valleys with slain men, and in all thy plains there shall fall in thee men slain with the sword.
8And I will fill his mountains with his slain men: in thy hills, and in thy valleys, and in all thy rivers, shall they fall that are slain with the sword.
9I will make thee a perpetual desolation, and thy cities shall not be inhabited any more: and thou shalt know that I am the Lord.
9I will make thee perpetual desolations, and thy cities shall not return: and ye shall know that I am the Lord.
10Because thou saidst, The two nations and the two countries shall be mine, and I shall inherit them; whereas the Lord is there:
10Because thou hast said, These two nations and these two countries shall be mine, and we will possess it; whereas the Lord was there:
11therefore, [as] I live, saith the Lord , I will even deal with thee according to thine enmity, and I will be made known to thee when I shall judge thee:
11Therefore, as I live, saith the Lord God, I will even do according to thine anger, and according to thine envy which thou hast used out of thy hatred against them; and I will make myself known among them, when I have judged thee.
12and thou shalt know that I am the Lord. I have heard the voice of thy blasphemies, whereas thou hast said, The desert mountains of Israelare given to us for food;
12And thou shalt know that I am the Lord, and that I have heard all thy blasphemies which thou hast spoken against the mountains of Israel, saying, They are laid desolate, they are given us to consume.
13and thou hast spoken swelling words against me with thy mouth: I have heard [them].
13Thus with your mouth ye have boasted against me, and have multiplied your words against me: I have heard them.
14Thus saith the Lord ; When all the earth is rejoicing, I will make thee desert.
14Thus saith the Lord God; When the whole earth rejoiceth, I will make thee desolate.
15Thou shalt be desert, O mount Seir, and all Idumea; and it shall be utterly consumed: and thou shalt know that I am the Lord their God.
15As thou didst rejoice at the inheritance of the house of Israel, because it was desolate, so will I do unto thee: thou shalt be desolate, O mount Seir, and all Idumea, even all of it: and they shall know that I am the Lord.
